Keeping Gentoo Up To Date These are a few steps I like to run to update my box. If you don’t know what the command does, look it up. I take no responsibility if it hoses your box.

When you format a new partition with EXT4FS, 5% of the available space is reserved for root things. So basically the df command will show 5% less available. I noticed this while backing up stuff from my fileserver to a drive on my desktop. My desktop was saying I had 0% free, but was still able to put things on it, probably because I was doing it as root. Anyways, you can see how much is being reserved on your partition with “dumpe2fs -h /dev/sd?
Logging your BASH sessions can be useful to keep a log of what you have done on your computer or spy on other users. This is a basic example of how to use the script program and a login script to automatically create a separate log file for each terminal session.
Code The code can be put into one of several different files. ~/.bash_profile would be for per user logging and /etc/profile or /etc/bash/bashrc can be used to log all users on the box.
Add these two lines to your /etc/inputrc or ~/.inputrc if you want CTRL+Left to skip to the previous and CTRL+Right to skip to the next word in PuTTY.
