Boot dammit!

Kevin Day, December 9th, 2007

The power went out earlier today, and when it came back on I was surprised to find that my server didn’t come back online with the power. There’s no monitor attached to it, so I checked the router and everything else first before I hauled the 20th-century cathode ray tube monitor out of the closet.

It turns out that I just left the install disk in the CD drive when I was installing a package some time ago and Ubuntu was booting from the CD instead of the hard drive. D’oh! Time to change the BIOS settings so that it doesn’t happen again.
