Convert a drive from MBR to GPT

mbr2gpt /validate /allowFullOS
mbr2gpt /convert /allowfullOS

Check if process is running

if pgrep -x "$PROCESS" > /dev/null; then
echo "$PROCESS Running"
else
echo "$PROCESS Not running"

Limiting clamav memory usage

During a database reload clamd will load the new DB first and then drop the old one. This concurrent database reload strategy allows it to keep scanning files while loading the new database. The drawback is that it requires twice as much memory as during normal operations. As a result the clamd process would keep getting killed.

Starting from ClamAV 0.103.0 you can set ConcurrentDatabaseReload no in your /etc/clamav/clamd.conf to disable this behaviour

Change from Slackware-14.2 (32-bit) to Slackware64-15.0 (64-bit)

Boot from Slackware-14.2 USB install stick

mkdir /myraid
mount /dev/md1 /myraid
mount /dev/md5 /myraid/usr
mount /dev/md6 /myraid/var
mount /dev/md7 /myraid/home

mount --bind /dev /myraid/dev
mount -t devpts devpts /myraid/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc /myraid/proc
mount -t sysfs sysfs /myraid/sys

mount USB with Slackware64-15.0
mkdir /myraid/usb
mount /dev/sdc1 /myraid/usb

chroot /myraid

cd /usb/slackware64/a
installpkg kernel-huge.t?z installpkg kernel-modules.t?z

reboot

uname -m should prints ‘x86_64
mount usb stick to /mnt/usb

cd /mnt/usb/slackware64/
installpkg a/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.33-x86_64-5.t?z
installpkg a/aaa_libraries-15.0-x86_64-19.t?z
installpkg a/aaa_base-15.0-x86_64-3.t?z
installpkg a/aaa_terminfo-6.3-x86_64-1.t?z

install rest of packages
installpkg */*.t?z

reboot. Now you are running a 64-bit system.
get rid of the old 32-bit packages:
removepkg /var/adm/packages/*-i[456]86-*
check the *.new files
