Re: [Unattended] $product_name handling in todo.pl and recent Windows versions

 Because MS makes so many different editions of their products, it's very
 difficult to catch all in todo.pl
 
 Maybe it would be a good idea to do substring instead of exact string
 matches?
 
 Like this:
$product_name contains Vista -- $os = vista
$product_name contains 2008  -- $os = win2008
 
 Second idea:
 Change the line
die Unrecognized $pn_key: $product_name;
 to
$os = 'unknown_os';
 
 My appsonly script would have no problem with that, but could that break 
 things for people doing operating system + applications installs?

In the meantime, a new version of todo.pl is in the SVN repository.

Juan, thanks for helping!

Gerhard

sort of sounds like you are using the dos boot and instead of the linux boot 
image.

I remember running into resource limits under the dos boot disk image.

Re: [Unattended] step by step guide

Hi Juan

I did  unzip all the below three zip files. so i think it could be wrong ?

$ unzip unattended-version.zip
[... output ...]
$ unzip unattended-version-dosboot.zip
[... output ...]
$ unzip unattended-version-linuxboot.zip
[... output ...]
$

So for this issue, I need to unzip only
unattended-version-linuxboot.zip and not unzip
unattended-version-dosboot.zip ?

Am i correct ?

Please suggest.

Thanks,

Kaushal

[Unattended] in search of suport

2009-12-08 Thread Dmitry Jerusalimsky
Hello!

I just found your project and I really like it! Setup was very easy and
relatively painless... The only issue that I'm having is that after the
network boot, the script fails at the EDD module. I did some searching
online and didn't get very far. I was hoping that you could help me sort
this problem out.

Here's the last thing I see on the screen:
*** Now we will load the EDD module...
Loading edd...
BIOS EDD facility v0.16 2004-Jun-25, 0 devices found
EDD information not available.
FATAL: Error inserting edd (/lib/modules/
2.6.29.1/kernel/drivers/firmware/edd.ko): No such device
...done loading edd
*** ...and locate the boot device
/sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev80 directory not found (did you load edd.o
module?) at /usr/bin/find-boot-device line 9.
*** find-boot-device failed
*** Dropping to shell

P.S. I am testing this out inside a Virtual Machine. I'm using VMWare
Workstation to create and run the VM.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

dimaj
