Josh, would you mind sharing with me the process that you used to create the Ubuntu PBA client CD? Because the server side is Ubuntu-based, there's potential to make a single CD that can be both server and client.

If I were to have some small amount of time to work on PBA, what feature would you like to see?
Thanks,

Hi there,
vinas, thanks for putting together the Ubuntu PBA client and making it available. I will make a note to check it out when I get a moment in my busy life.
carrolan, try deleting /root/ip.txt to start all over. It's a poor man's cache for the IP address of the PBA server. You can also manually insert the IP address of your server into /root/ip.txt for testing. Also, when an IP...

There have been people that have been interested in helping out with that, but there hasn't been any traction as far as I know. I haven't had much time to think about it. Perhaps, someone who's created a deb before can let me know what sort of information or deliverable I can provide to help.

If it still doesn't work, can you provide the output of:
sfdisk -d
parted [disk] print
replace [disk] with /dev/hda, /dev/sda, or whatever your disk is.
I should be able to provide you with a manual command to run on the partition that's failing so that we can see what's going on.

Unfortunately, I've been too busy and such a task will take longer for me to do than for someone else.
I'll be happy to assist someone that wants to step up and make a deb.

PBA uses ftp for grabbing the initial pba.tgz from the server, ssh for ntfsclone and dd, and port 4025 for partimage.
Making everything work on port 80 would be a non-trivial task, so it's not likely to happen anytime soon.
Hope this helps,
Roland.

Does the problem persist if you run scandisk or chkdsk on the NTFS partition before trying to backup?
Unfortunately, the error codes don't tell me much. Later on, I hope to add some better error logging so these types of errors will be easier to debug.

At present, the pba rpm overwrites the default file that defines the pxe boot menu. As a result, custom changes to this file, for example to add other entries, are overwritten if the pba package is updated.
