[leaf-devel] RFC: Oxygen Network Boot HOWTO

2002-10-04 Thread H. D. Lee

David, List,

I have written a howto on booting Oxygen from network. Only with NIC
and boot ROM on the router, it should boot from tftp and dhcpd. The
packages also loaded by tftp. The whole process made easy with David's
Oxygen scripts that have been made  network boot friendly. Thanks David.

http://www.leaf-project.org/devel/hdlee/oxygen/doc/netboot/network-boot-howto
http://www.leaf-project.org/devel/hdlee/oxygen/doc/netboot/oxygen.cfg
http://www.leaf-project.org/devel/hdlee/oxygen/doc/netboot/std.conf

I hope it would of use to someone. The document is still in a very
alpha stage. Comments and suggestions are welcomed.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Yes, WISP-Dist supports AP mode and you can configure via its menu
interface.

Yes. You know any other drivers which don't require closed 
tertriary firmware?

RE: [leaf-devel] latest cvs version

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the information. I wasn't sure what version was currently being
used. I will go ahead and install the 1.11.1p1 version.

Eric,
I don't see where the stable release (1.11) would be a problem.

Neat.  It'd be nice if you added a .txt extension to the
file so that clicking on the link displayed the HOWTO in
Mozilla rather than defaulting to downloading a binary/octet
stream mime type.

Also, when you do look at it in Mozilla, you can see the first
few paragraphs weren't formatted with any carriage returns so
that the lines are about 400 characters wide and we have to
scroll sideways.

Beyond asthetics, it'd be helpful if you said a few words about
mknbi-linux which is where a lot of the meat an potatos happens.
I'd not heard of it until seeing you use it.  And if you could
comment somewhere on the changes you made to oxygen.cfg that makes
it load pacakges over the network.

And finally, as far as useability goes, how do you back
stuff up?

I liked it,
matthew

[leaf-devel] bering users manual command anomaly

2002-10-04 Thread Matthew Schalit

http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/buwireless.html

There's a typo below.  The broadcast addy didn't turn
out to be what you inteneded :)



10.6  Step 5: configure your interfaces file

Trough the LEAF configuration menu type 1 to access to the network configuration menu 
and 1 again to edit your 
/etc/network/interfaces file. Enter the following information:

auto lo eth0

iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet dhcp

iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.1.254
masklen 24
broadcast 255.255.255.0

Good idea. Will be fixed on the next update. Just to prevent missing
link if I fixed it right now. Sorry for inconvenience caused. Also I
would like to convert this document to DocBook one day.

 Also, when you do look at it in Mozilla, you can see the first
 few paragraphs weren't formatted with any carriage returns so
 that the lines are about 400 characters wide and we have to
 scroll sideways.

True, I wrote this using vim without applying any text formatting
option. Thanks for the suggestion.

 Beyond asthetics, it'd be helpful if you said a few words about
 mknbi-linux which is where a lot of the meat an potatos happens.
 I'd not heard of it until seeing you use it.  And if you could
 comment somewhere on the changes you made to oxygen.cfg that makes
 it load pacakges over the network.

mknbi-linux was mentioned on the software requirement part, although
nothing exist to explain it further. I'll add one. Also another nice
idea to comment the changes to oxygen.cfg.

 And finally, as far as useability goes, how do you back
 stuff up?

This is one thing that have not been finished. As previous message
stated, this document is still in very alpha stage. 

 I liked it,

Thanks.

[leaf-devel] [ leaf-Patches-618819 ] Netboot-HowTo-Dachstein

2002-10-04 Thread noreply

Patches item #618819, was opened at 2002-10-05 12:21
You can respond by visiting: 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailatid=313751aid=618819group_id=13751

Category: documentation
Group: None
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Priority: 5
Submitted By: Glenn McKechnie (graybeard)
Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody)
Summary: Netboot-HowTo-Dachstein

Initial Comment:
The following links point to a HowTo on converting a
Dachstein floppy image to a netbootable image. It was
mentioned before on the user mailing list, however it
was never officially contributed at that time.
It loads the full image via tftp once only. No further
contact with the server is made after bootup.
It does not make full use of the lrcfg backup scripts,
however local file modifications can be transferred
back to the server if scp is available on the client.
Modifications to the image are made on the server where
the Dachstein file system is extracted. The net
bootable image (nbi) can then be repackaged for the
next reboot.

It's available at
http://members.optushome.com.au/graybeard/linux/netboot.html
or as a 39k compressed file at
http://members.optushome.com.au/graybeard/linux/nfx4/HowTo-Netboot-Dachstein.tar.gz

Cheers
Glenn
