need portable crontab host-checking/failover logic across Linux & Cygwin Note that in Linux the test could be collapsed to ping -A -c5 $partner || partner=nnn however I needed to add the 6 7 and |grep ... for Cygwin compatibility. |

how to use “Unusable” sectors outside defined partition boundaries Assigning answer for now. I'm looking to turn this into a fuller bootup solution that considers total sector count fdisk -s /dev/sda and boundary of last partition, to safely find that start offset. |

changing default shell to /bin/bash of at job scheduler like in CRON It seems for now it can't be changed because the at daemon hardwires /bin/sh somewhere. My workarounds to call bash complicate and make for very confusing double/triple quote escaping. |
