I found un-get which managed to let me install make and all its dependencies. Leaving here for anyone that might get stuck. I just followed these instructions: https://www.reddit.com/r/unRAID/comments/wy9nft/unget_a_simple_command_line_tool_to_install/

a lot docs are outdated since version 7, could these be updated. could also the quality of docs and topics be more broad. example aggregate support topics and build docs/faqs with common topics.

I am trying get my sensors to work on my new machine following the instructions here: https://github.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/issues/154#issuecomment-1210022521 However i am getting no where... as make is not installed. I have tried to install just make from slackware packages (using 15.0) but i get into dependencies issues. before unraid 7 nerd tools was my go to get things like things working.... Not being able to even install one package successfully with slackware is pretty irritating i must say :(.... Rant aside could anyone help me. How are u guys installing packages now without nerdtools, what repo should i use to install them. how do u guys deal with dependencies and their resolution.... Thanks in advance. apologies if it sounds daft but i wouldnt be here i havent already googled plenty or tried to do it with AI tools :(.

thanks for your help, i didnt read properly some of it. your comments help me threading trough it.

Sorry if it sounds silly but when say `Set to move everything to pool` is there anything else i should do besides making sure nothing is accessing the pools?

Thanks for this. which of the folders above contains the sum of the folders? i thought /mnt/user/appdata would have the sum of cache +pool files, but my disk1 has more files than /mnt/user/appdata ? also should it be sufficient to stop docker (as its what keeps updating the files to move them) will mover pick them all up? I am running the mover but one of my folders remains the same each time, and there is connected to that folder.

Apologies if this has been asked before. I have installed unraid a couple months back, and i am super happy with it, as it gave a whole new life to my old tired nas, and got me started into the rabbit hole that selfhosting/homelab is. When i setup unraid i setup, I have several shares with primary storage as my cache (ssd), and secondary storage the array (ide), as i misunderstood what the mover actually does. (i assumed that the mover kept the data in cache, and copied over to array), which i know now it is incorrect. i would like to correct this to make sure that these shares run solely of my ssd. (one of these shares is my appdata). I can tell see as example, `/mnt/cache/appdata` has 8Gb of data, `/mnt/user/appdata` has around 22Gb, and `/mnt/disk1/appdata` has 33gb. My question is what is the best way to back this up (i also have backups of all these done with appdata backup plugin). Some of my shares dont have backups done with this plugin. Should i: - attempt to restore backups, - or can i just copy it across to a new share (if so which folder should i use). - use shares UI and remove second storage ( i am assuming if i do this, i would potentially end up with just the data from /mnt/cache). or - something else entirely. screenshot of my share setup in case its not clear
