Hey SI-users, Question: Should I abandon all hope of ever getting support from the SISuite lists?
Reasons: 1) The Wiki is spammed. 2) Trac is spammed. 3) Last "stable" release (which I'm trying to use, production environment and all) is almost 3 years old. 4) Trac roadmap indicates a version 4.2.x and 5.x in the sights, but 4.1.7 is still not considered the "active stable". Is anyone at the project going to clarify the "release cycle" such as it is? 5) Only the developer list seems to get any response from anyone involved with SISuite, leading me to believe that support is considered "beneath" the project managers. Now, just to give someone a fair chance, I'll reiterate the question I initially posed to the list: I've generated a boot CD for an SI image stored on my SI server. I'm using 4.0.2, because that is considered stable, and before I go tweaking my autoinstall.conf file to generate CD images with the necessary network options pre-embedded, I'm trying to test passing the network options at the boot prompt. It would appear that SI is reading them correctly, but not passing them to BusyBox's implementation of ifconfig correctly. I base this on the fact that the SI script spits out a "usage" prompt from BusyBox for ifconfig, tells me it failed to be able to use the network settings I gave it, and then dumps me to the standard "something went wrong" message. I don't run a DHCP server and I don't want to run a DHCP server. I'm using SI for bare-metal recovery only. (All my images are of individual servers and all are REPLICANT for the the IP settings.) Anyone got an idea as to *why* this would not work? -R -- Robby Desmond BiblioVault Operations Assistant University of Chicago Press http://www.bibliovault.org/ ph: 773-834-2387 cell: 773-458-0959 rdesm...@press.uchicago.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ sisuite-users mailing list sisuite-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sisuite-users
