InetBoot for "Fedora/Ubuntu/KNOPPIX/VMKnoppix" is released.
by Kuniyasu Suzaki
Dear,
InetBoot for "Fedora/Ubuntu/KNOPPIX/VMKnoppix" is released.
The motto is "Don't download and burn a liveCD. InetBoot boots it from the Internet."
http://openlab.ring.gr.jp/oscircular/inetboot/
InetBoot is a bootloader which gets kernel and disk image via Internet
and boots from it. This version boots Linux from a ISO file of
LiveCD(Fedora/Ubuntu/KNOPPIX/VMKnoppix) which is uploaded on a HTTP server.
The sample bootable CD (6MB) boots:
2 types of Fedora (9, 8)
3 types of Ubuntu (804, 710, 704)
4 types of KNOPPIX(531, 511, 501, 402) and
5 types of VMKnoppix (Xen: 3.2.0, 3.1.1, 3.1.0, 3.0.4.1, 3.0.4)
The detail is mentioned in the English Guide.

Fw: [Fedora-livecd-list] Including Network Manager configs in LiveCD
by Todd N
More specifically, I am looking for some detailed information on where I need to place the config files on the LiveCD's file system so that I have an available connection to our VPN on logging in.
I have tried filling in user-specific information from ~/.gconf/system/networking/connections on a system with a working VPN connection into /etc/skel on the LiveCD, hoping that when I boot up the CD and log in to my user account, these settings will have been copied into the user's home directory and the connection will be active. When I create the LiveCD in Fedora 8, the connection only works when I log out, then log back into that user. When I create the CD in Fedora 9, the connection does not work at all (even when I log out and back in). I can see that the config files were copied from /etc/skel to where I expected in the .gconf directory within the home directory.
If anyone has anything they can share about the Live CD boot process and how it relates to starting Network Manager, I'd be most appreciative.
Thanks again,
Todd

Hello,
I am hoping someone out there has some experience with Network Manager and livecd-creator. I am trying to create a Live CD which includes VPN connection information for Network Manager. Where in the system do the network configuration files reside (i.e. the files containing connection name, connection IP address, certificate file location, etc.)? I want to be sure I have all pertinent config files related to a specific VPN connection, so I can copy them onto the Live CD's file system in the kickstart post install script.
Thanks for your help!
Todd

Git commit
by Pedro Silva
Hi!
I found out that the keyboard config for pt_PT ks files weren't exactly
right, I made the necessary changes but I can't commit. I get this
error:
[pedro@localhost spin-kickstarts]$ git push
The authenticity of host 'git.fedorahosted.org (66.135.52.17)' can't be
established.
RSA key fingerprint is 10:67:7b:ac:f2:b0:06:66:7f:46:d8:e8:5a:45:0d:97.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'git.fedorahosted.org,66.135.52.17' (RSA) to
the list of known hosts.
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
I don't understand, I uploaded my public key to my fedora account.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Best regards,

F9 Install server locks up on selinux-policy-targeted
by Todd N
Hello,
I'm attempting to create a Fedora 9 Live CD on a Fedora 9 system. The livecd-creator script installs some of the packages, but when it gets to selinux-policy-targeted, the following message appears on my screen:
libsemanage.dbase_llist_query: could not query record value
and then the system I am using to do the livecd creation freezes up completely. I cannot even use Alt-F1, Alt-F2, etc. to switch between terminals.
Any help, pointers, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

To upgrade, or not to upgrade
by Michael D Labriola
Looking through the git logs, I noticed that 'mayflower' has been removed in favor of using a newer version of 'mkinitrd'. I got the impression from the fedora8/9 branching that this newer 'mkinitrd' is not available in fedora 8... Is this true?
What (if any) functionality am I missing out on by using the f8 branch?

Boot to RAM
by Michael D Labriola
Does the current Fedora Live CD support loading the rootfs to RAM? I thought I remembered that as a boot option in some of the earlier releases (Fedora 6?).
I googled a bit and found reference to a 'live_ram' command line arg and tried adding that and booting, but I get the following error:
Done copying live image to RAM.
eject: did not find a device /dev/root in /sys/block/
Then I get a "Good Luck" message and a rescue prompt.
My test PC is a Core2Duo w/ 2GB of RAM, SATA HD, and IDE CD/DVD drive.
-Mike
