Hi Erich, I wanted to have a look at netbootmgr, i may need to use such a tool. However, impossible to compile netbootmgr from sources on my Debian box:
puic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (3.3). Recent extensions won't be handled. Then i tried to use the command line (i do not really care about the GUI) but i have the following message and i did not find any documentation to try to fix the problem: Could not open /etc/netbootmgr.conf at netbootlib.pm line 55. My 2 cents... Le lundi 7 mai 2007 09:26, Erich Focht a écrit : > Hello, > > I checked into OSCAR trunk a new version of netbootmgr.
