Does'nt work

3) Report your problem on kernel.org
  

I am not very sure that the problem comes with kernel.

In Fedora core 8, the kernel is 2.6.24.4   and the network driver 
Optiplex 755 works
Furthermore, I have exactly the same problem with Dell XPS 1330.
It freezes after Dhcp discover.
Ctrl C   cd  /etcand   ./master restart the installation.

Perhaps, the problem is with the compiling options of the kernel ?

 What do you think ?

[Unattended] Adding Perl Modules

2008-04-18 Thread Kevin G. Erdmann
I have been attempting to add perl modules during an installation.  I 
have 
written .bat files to load the .ppd files using ActiveState ppm.  Everything 
works fine except when the .bat file is loaded using the todo.pl script.

The only error that I get is The system cannot find the path 
specified.  It 
will state that twice and then quit.

Any ideas on how to install perl modules would be greatly appreciated.  
Also, 
the computers that use the perl modules cannot connect to the internet so all

   Strawberry perl looks interesting and I will investigate that option.  
 Plus 
 since it is open source that is even better.
 However, looking at it I am afraid that the ppm for Strawberry perl might 
 have 
 the same effect as ActivePerl.
   The problem seems to be a something in the todo.pl script.  What I have 
 found 
 is that if I launch another command line from the todo.pl and type ppm I get 
 the exact same problem as described in my first email.  However, if I start a 
 new cmd from the task manager or start-run menu the .bat file works fine.
 

Sounds like the %PATH% environment is different depending on how you invoke
the command. I would put the full path to ppm in your .bat file and see if
that solves the problem.

Re: [Unattended] Adding Perl Modules

2008-04-18 Thread Kevin G. Erdmann
I have tried putting the path in the todo.pl statement such as:
todo.pl c:\perl\bin\ppm.bat install absolute path to ppd file

This produces the same results.

However,  I did try executing ppm in the shell that was created by todo.pl and 
it works but only when c:\perl\bin is the current directory (I just cd to 
it).  Other than that the ppm command produces the original problem

I could strip this out  and put it in a seperate .bat file.

[Unattended] Unattended-gui FINAL release 1.708 and boot-cd v0.8

2008-04-18 Thread Mario Gzuk
Hi,

http://unattended-gui.sourceforge.net/index.php?title=Unattended-gui:Versioning

Main Features:

* support unattended installation of several windows OS and linux distributions
* update software if a new version is available
* softwareinstallations via http
* software repositorys can be synced from every place
# http://unattended-gui.sourceforge.net/index.php?title=Video:sync_repo2
# http://unattended-gui.sourceforge.net/index.php?title=Video:sync_repo1
* central syslog managment
* central cron managment
* switch managment with SNMP support and error reporting
* DHCP-Ldap configuration management
* Ldap editor/manager
* PHP ssh client
* Permission managment
* Several athentification systems supported
* Automatical add computers to database via arpwatch
* LDAP as user/group backend
* Inventory of Win/LNX/MaCOS-Clients through SIMO 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/simo/)
* Multilanguage support in the GUI
* Online update possible, no more need to make a new installation of the GUI
* Highly customizable

I have build a vmware machine where all features are available. Feel free to 
ask me for the link.
The vmware image is free and there is only OpenSource software (mainly GPL 
licensed) installed.
The vmware image is based on gentoo (http://gentoo.org), a high customizable 
Linux system.
You will run through a setup for the first boot where you can chooce:
- the unattended user (if you have one you can use this, if not chooce uauser!)
- the unattended users password (if you have one you can use this, if not 
chooce unattended-gui!)
- the location of your install SMB server (if you have one you can use this, if 
not chooce the IP or name of this machine, you will be asked for IP/Name later)
- the location of the GUI install (should be for this case the IP or the name 
of this machine)
- Run through a short network setup
- You are asked if you want to start LDAP/SAMBA/TFTP and DHCP (DHCP can be 
started later - only start it if you know what you are doing... the dhcp is 
preconfigured and can make trouble in your network)

The image contains:
- a samba server (for WinOS and Win-Software installations) preconfigured for 
the use of unattended or unattended-gui
- a tftp Server with a menu based boot menu including unattended-boot 0.7, 
memtest and other features for PXE/BootP booting
- a DHCP Server
- a WEBserver with an complete and ready to use unattended-gui installation 
(version 1.708)
- a Mysql Server

For more informations use the sf.net mailing list or contact me directly.

Also new release of the boot-cd is available:
http://unattended-gui.sourceforge.net/index.php?title=Main_Page#2008-04-18_unattended-gui_boot-cd_0.8

Changes:
  * kernel 2.6.25
  * e1000 driver version: 8.0.1

Thank you all for bug reporting, testing and your help!

Have a nice weekend!

Re: [Unattended] Adding Perl Modules

2008-04-18 Thread Kevin G. Erdmann
Alright, I think I figured it out.  In the script that is called by todo.pl I 
used the following lines.
cd /d C:\Perl\bin
ppm location and name of package.ppd

It seems that in order to install the packages via ppm for local files one has 
to have the working directory be in c:\perl\bin
