Drop me the sudo line when you're back at a keyboard and I'll be ready to run the SMART tests and badblocks scans on the 4TB drives. No rush β€” the drives aren't going anywhere. πŸ’₯ user: Conversation info (untrusted metadata): ```json { "message_id": "1495111644462842028", "sender_id": "266336985692635139", "sender": "Mr.Slater", "timestamp": "Sat 2026-04-18 17:19 UTC" } ``` Sender (untrusted metadata): ```json { "label": "Mr.Slater (266336985692635139)", "id": "266336985692635139", "name": "Mr.Slater", "username": "mr.slater", "tag": "mr.slater" } ``` Answer your earlier question I don’t have enough power connectors for multiple drives. Just the two. assistant: That makes sense β€” SATA power cables are usually the limiting factor on these older boxes. So we've got **2Γ—4TB hot right now**, and the other four are on standby waiting for a power connector window. For the testing plan, that actually works out fine β€” we test the 2 that are live, swap in the next batch when we can, and so on. Slower than 4-at-a-time but it's what we've got. I'll update the project file to note the power constraint and that we're starting with just the 2 live drives. assistant: Updated. Batch 1 is the two live drives β€” I can run the full SMART long test + badblocks scan on those as soon as you get me that sudo line. The other four wait their turn. πŸ’₯ user: Conversation info (untrusted metadata): ```json { "message_id": "1495111970687287376", "sender_id": "266336985692635139", "sender": "Mr.Slater", "timestamp": "Sat 2026-04-18 17:21 UTC" } ``` Sender (untrusted metadata): ```json { "label": "Mr.Slater (266336985692635139)", "id": "266336985692635139", "name": "Mr.Slater", "username": "mr.slater", "tag": "mr.slater" } ``` Actually, go ahead and give me the pseudo line. I might be able to pull up the Casaos terminal. assistant: Run this as your own user (has to be sudoer to add another sudoer): ```bash echo "openclaw ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/openclaw && sudo chmod 440 /etc/sudoers.d/openclaw ``` That's it β€” creates the sudoers file, sets proper permissions. After that, `sudo -n smartctl -a /dev/sdb` should work without a password from the openclaw user. user: Conversation info (untrusted metadata): ```json { "message_id": "1495112810957377676", "sender_id": "266336985692635139", "sender": "Mr.Slater", "timestamp": "Sat 2026-04-18 17:24 UTC" } ``` Sender (untrusted metadata): ```json { "label": "Mr.Slater (266336985692635139)", "id": "266336985692635139", "name": "Mr.Slater", "username": "mr.slater", "tag": "mr.slater" } ``` It will have to wait I forgot Kasa OS terminal doesn’t allow copy paste assistant: Ha, yeah CasaOS terminal is bare-bones like that. No copy/paste kills multi-line commands. When you've got a real terminal β€” SSH, screen, whatever β€” we can knock it out in 30 seconds. Or if you want, I can look into whether CasaOS has an SSH server option or a web shell somewhere that'd let you paste. πŸ’₯ user: Conversation info (untrusted metadata): ```json { "message_id": "1495112981200109768", "sender_id": "266336985692635139", "sender": "Mr.Slater", "timestamp": "Sat 2026-04-18 17:25 UTC" } ``` Sender (untrusted metadata): ```json { "label": "Mr.Slater (266336985692635139)", "id": "266336985692635139", "name": "Mr.Slater", "username": "mr.slater", "tag": "mr.slater" } ``` It has SSH I’m just on my phone right now assistant: Ha, SSH from a phone is painful for this kind of thing β€” especially the `chmod 440` line that you really don't want to fat-finger. When you're back at a real keyboard, one paste and we're rolling. I'll have the full test scripts ready to go. No rush. πŸ’₯ user: Conversation info (untrusted metadata): ```json { "message_id": "1495145746528211117", "sender_id": "266336985692635139", "sender": "Mr.Slater", "timestamp": "Sat 2026-04-18 19:35 UTC" } ``` Sender (untrusted metadata): ```json { "label": "Mr.Slater (266336985692635139)", "id": "266336985692635139", "name": "Mr.Slater", "username": "mr.slater", "tag": "mr.slater" } ``` i think it is done assistant: Sudoers file is there and has correct perms, but it's set for the `openclaw` user β€” I'm running as `topher`. Need to update it: ```bash echo "topher ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/openclaw ``` That's the same file, just swap `openclaw` for `topher`. Run that and I'll be good to go. user: Conversation info (untrusted metadata): ```json { "message_id": "1495146823902298242", "sender_id": "266336985692635139", "sender": "Mr.Slater", "timestamp": "Sat 2026-04-18 19:39 UTC" } ``` Sender (untrusted metadata): ```json { "label": "Mr.Slater (266336985692635139)", "id": "266336985692635139", "name": "Mr.Slater", "username": "mr.slater", "tag": "mr.slater" } ``` try nw assistant: We're in. Running SMART long tests on both 4TB drives now. ```` ## Notes ## Related - No related pages yet.
