BTW: PCLOS is very nice isn't it?
derek
For getting office staff system users started, PCLOS rocks.
My boss could not drag himself away from it to-night as I signed off, and no other livecd had him interested.
So here's hoping that I get to at least dual boot the workstations at work, that way the folks at PCLOS will get some real support.
Now, back to nailing my problems here. Will keep you posted.
Er..... one thing.
I'm about to re-activate the MDK10 lilo and get all my options back online.
Does this appear correct for getting the links right for lilo to point back to PCLOS.
image=/boot/vmlinuzpclos.img < my link made within PCLOS [ only one partition used for the installation ] which is at hdb5 - MDK10 is all at hda >
label="PCLOS"
root=/dev/hdb5 initrd=/boot/initrdpclos.img < my other link made as above ie [# ln -s /boot/initrd-blah.img /mnt/hda1/initrd.img ] >
append="noapic acpi=on splash=silent devfs=nomount
vga=788
read-only
My concern here is that the vmlunuz and initrd files on hdb5 are both pointed to, so that lilo knows what is going on and that the referrences are correct ( ie the links are pointing correctly )
When done within konsole I appear to be having no problems with the making of the links. ( No red flashing names - good newbie feature that. )
To finish up for now here are the open entries for my /etc/shorewall/interfaces
net ppp+ detect loc eth0 detect
Everything else is commented out ( hashed ) I have done nothing to this file ever.
Right - rescue disk for PCLOS first then jumping right in.
