No answer at all is also an answer... in the meantime I found out, that mkelf-Linux doesnot exits anymore in Gusty. So I tried mkelfImage instead. that looked good in the beginning. With mkelfImage --output=/boot/nbi.img-2.6.22-14-386 vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-386 initrd.img-2.6.22-14-386
reply: initrd.img-2.6.22-14-386 already exists update-initramfs -u seemed to be easier as it automatically goes with the highest kernel number. It looked good at the beginning. Booting on Ports 1067/1068 worked to the 2nd dhcp request. But then it continued with the wrong ltsp-boot server settings. It looked (tried) for a boot file in 192.168.2.1 (Windows server) but my Edubuntu Server is on 192.168.2.11 So no client boot again!! The /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf is set accordingly. Or should I use the /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/ltsp-nbd instead of the nfs file??? but where shall I put it?? Some ideas??? ps: I wanted to upgrade to Gusty as I hoped for faster Client boot. The alternate dhcp Boot worked really great under Feisty and gave me a lot of advantages. With this setting I can plug in "my" Edubuntu Server in any existing Network without any changes! -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Auftrag von Anton Kaser Gesendet: Dienstag, 13.

I used the alternate DHCP-Ports for this and it worked great under Feisty. For installing i wrote 3 little Scripts. But now, under Gusty mkelf-linux doesnot work anymore and so the 2nd DHCP request doesnot work on the clients. The Client starts to boot and stops when the Network card waits for the IP-Adress for the 2nd time. - Any Idea why mkelf doesnot work anymore?? I chanched the Kernel nummber to 2.6.22-14-386 Here the 3 scripts in a row. # Find the line: #bring up device # add -p 1068 after ipconfig in the next 8 lines ( 3 times) # ipconfig -p 1068 ... gedit /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/nfs echo "copy" cp /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/nfs /opt/ltsp/i386/initrd/nfs echo "mkinitramfs" mkinitramfs -o /opt/ltsp/i386/initrd/nfs # now the 2nd script will be copied into chroot environment cp 2nd-dhcp-2.sh /opt/ltsp/i386/2nd-dhcp-2.sh echo "chroot /opt/ltsp/i386/" echo echo "please type: ./2nd-dhcp-2.sh" chroot /opt/ltsp/i386/ # the 2nd script: update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.20-15-386 #echo "cd /boot" cd /boot #echo "mkelf-linux" # +++++++++++ the following doesnot work anymore: mkelf-linux --output=/boot/nbi.img-2.6.20-15-386 vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-386 initrd.img-2.6.20-15-386 echo "type exit" # the 3rd script: cd /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/ cp /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/initrd.img-2.6.20-15-386 initrd.img-2.6.20-15-386 cp /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/nbi.img-2.6.20-15-386 nbi.img-2.6.20-15-386 cp /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/initrd.img initrd.img cp /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/nbi.img nbi.img -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
