If I were doing this, I'd be looking to customise a LiveCD to hide the installation stuff and autostart the tomcat stack.
One issue you're likely to have is that you don't know in advance how much RAM you'll have available, but the Live CD community may have a fix for that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_CD cheers stuart -- I have a new phone number: 04 463 5692 ________________________________________ From: euler <esne...@seafdec.org.ph> Sent: Wednesday, 19 November 2014 4:05 p.m. To: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Dspace-tech] Use case for exporting a DSpace collection to CD/DVD Dear All, We are planning to distribute our DSpace collection via CD/DVD to other libraries in areas where there are no internet connection. Searching the mailing list, I found this thread [1]. I would like to ask if you have implemented these and maybe share your experiences? If you have used greenstone to export collections [2], you'll pretty get the idea. My supervisor suggested to try out LibraryBox [3] but AFAIK, it will only work for static pages and you can't include searching. My other concerns are, just like the resulting exported collection from greenstone, I need a way to "automatically" start the services (eg tomcat[4] and postgresql[5]) and launch the default landing page for the collection. If someone can guide me how to achieve these or point me to resources from the web. Any advices and comments would be great too. Thanks in advance.
