We had a disk crash some months back on a Sun pizzabox - disks were mirrored (linux \
software raid), so no problem, except the new drive was a bit smaller than the \
original. This was a replacement part from Sun^WOracle... Since the machine was a \
compute node, I ended up reinstalling it instead of waiting for another replacement.

I all pedagogikk er det essensielt at pensum presenteres intelligibelt. Det er et \
elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med \
fremmed opprinnelse. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer \
på norsk. _______________________________________________
