hi all, thanks for the advise to install the i386 version of edubuntu on the amd64 terminal server - i didn't realize that could be done (i'm no linux guru). i installed it fine. when i tried to connect a client via the romomatic cd, i got the following text to cycle through the screen:
Probing isa nic... <sleep> Boot from (N)etwork or (Q)uit? Probing pci nic... [eepro100] Ethernet addr 00:A0:09:9F:BF:62 Valid link not established. i think this could either be a romomatic problem (perhaps i didn't create the boot disk correctly), a software configuration problem or a nic compatibility problem. i have the computer cabled to a switch and the switch cabled to the terminal server's nic. what can i do to make sure that the terminal server is ready to receive client requests via the switch? can anyone provide any insight? at least i know it isn't an amd64 / intel problem. also, does anyone know how to bypass a bios password? one of the clients was donated and nobody knows the bios password so i can't configure it to boot from CD. i suppose I could unplug the HD, but i'm trying to avoid doing that if there is an easier solution. thanks, oe1 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
