Looking more closely, the partition that is normally mounted as /boot didn't have the Linux kernel or ramdisk images. I have installed the same IPFire version into VirtualBox so I could pull the files out and put them back on the hard disk. Back at the grub> prompt I can manually boot the kernel but...

Hello,

Logging wasn't enabled in the update accelerator so I have turned it on, rebooted IPFire and run another update on one of the Linux servers. A Windows 10 laptop that was switched on had also added some files to the queue before the logging was enabled. The file /var/log/updatexlrator/cache.log only ...

To try and see what was going on I deleted all of the files from the pending download queue and rebooted my IPFire box. This morning it is now showing four files as waiting to be downloaded: Screen Shot 2018-01-26 at 09.21.52.png Running "find . -name *.info -print" and "ls -R | grep info" from the ...

More oddities... After cleansing the update accelerator cache yesterday I have run an update on one of my Debian servers in the normal manner: apt-get update apt-get upgrade It reported that there were 28 packages that need to be updated and it downloaded them and installed them as expected.

Hello, If I look at the statistics for the update accelerator through the web interface it tells me that there are 12 files using just over 2GB yet if I run "du -sh" from within the /var/updatecache directory it reports 81GB and 27,405 files. Is there a way to re-index it so the cache knows about th...
