Slots Tool

I'm running TrueNAS-SCALE-23.10.0.1 on an old Supermicro motherboard in a Genesys S208B-TWIN-ITX-12G chassis. This chassis has hot swappable 3.5" SAS drive bays oriented in two rows of four drives. My storage drives are connected through an LSI Broadcom SAS 9300-8i HBA. My HBA does not support the LOCATE feature, so I cannot blink LEDs to locate hard drives to replace.

In order to quickly associate which hard drive in TrueNAS corresponds to what physical slot it is stored in I wrote a script. This script uses the description column of TrueNAS's Storage Disks table to label what slot a particular drive is installed in. One caveat with this script is I must run it after every reboot or after I install/remove a hard drive, so running sudo slots is now at the beginning of my disk repalcement workflows.

Installation

Copy slots.sh (attached below) to /usr/local/sbin/slots and then run sudo chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/slots. Afterward you will be able to use the tool anywhere by running `sudo

Convert sequence of JPEG images to MP4 video

ffmpeg -r 24 -pattern_type glob -i '*.JPG' -i DSC_%04d.JPG -s hd1080 -vcodec libx264 timelapse.mp4

-r 24 - output frame rate
-pattern_type glob -i '*.JPG' - all JPG files in the current directory
-i DSC_%04d.JPG - e.g. DSC_0397.JPG
-s hd1080 - 1920x1080 resolution

System Setup: Wii

This is currently incomplete! I did not document all the IOS changes I've done.

I have a 2008 Nintendo Wii, which will have a 2 GB SD (not SDHC) card that holds ProjectM and Homebrew software, and a 32 GB USB flash drive housing my purchased ripped games on the bottom-most USB port. This guide will assume both flash devices are newly formatted with the SD card being FAT16 and FAT32 for the USB drive.

	Designed for makemkvcon running inside a Docker container writing MKV files to /output.

	The problem:
	makemkvcon creates MKV files with the maximum of 0644 file mode. The current umask limits the maximum file mode, but
	does not itself increase permissions (only decreases). This means when a user has a umask of 0002 and touches a new
	file, it will have permissions of 664. However when makemkvcon runs MKV files will have permissions of 644.

	The solution:
	This code compiles into a shared object which is loaded at the beginning of makemkvcon's execution. This will
