Open Source Linux Boot Software - Page 13

This project aims to make such Open Source utilities by which one can shoot any problem with/without having technical knowledge/skills.Tuxguru's Rescue tablet resolves many problems including Passwords,Grub,Backup,Recovery,Partition,Installations,etc..

Two Kernel Monte is a Linux kernel module which allows Linux to load another kernel image into RAM and restart the machine from that kernel. The loader supports initial RAM disks and passing arbitrary kernel command line parameters to the new kernel.

Many complex storage environments running within GNL/Linux could benefit from increased disassembly and resource remediation during shutdown. Underdog an alternate /init to create a "late" user context to resume control during shutdown to park media and detach network devices. Currently there is a fully working initramfs (mkinitramfs/mkinitrd) replacement that is capable of building the early user context images both as separate files or built into the kernel image. The working proof of concept code for the alternate /init is too messy to sahre just now. /doh.

The User-space System Device Enumeration (uSDE) facility manages the devices attached to a computer system. It is responsible for creating, deleting and maintaining the devices and networking interfaces for the system that it is installed on.

Patched slackware installation boot/root disks to support the Vaio C1Vx USB floppy. Currently only Slack 8 is supported, with 8.1 coming soon.

ValDisk is a boot/root floppy set made for low-end machines (laptops) to be put to good use, such as for serial or network clients. It's goal is to run in as little as 4 MB of RAM, therefor it does not use a ramdisk.

vold is a Volume Daemon for Linux that can automatically mount CD-Roms, Harddrives, USB Flash Sticks, iPods etc. It is also possible to identify Partitions by UUID or volumename and mount them in a pre-defined Folder. Aims to replace mounting by hand!

WebSphere doesn't come with an init.d script to start it up when Linux boots; so I wrote one.

Webbsyte login is a program to interface with UNIX/Linux users to be able to login to their computer. There is currently a login program that is installed with UNIX, but we are going to build one with even bigger possibilities. Webbsyte Login will inte

Yard is a suite of Perl scripts for creating custom boot/rescue/Linux-on-a-floppy disks. You specify a basic set of files and utilities for inclusion and Yard handles the details, including checking for errors, omissions and inconsistencies.

ZorOS is a boot manager that hides/shows partitions at boot time and allows to boot up to 10 primary partitions per HD

a2webd created to facilitate launch a2web a lightweight Web User Interface for aria2 with remote control support for downloads

Ein Programm um z.B. USB-Sticks oder Samba Freigaben(NAS Laufwerke) dauerhaft, bei jedem Systemstart zu mounten oder zu entfernen. Verzeichnisse werden automatisch erstellt oder entfernt. Die Partitionen können im Dateibrowser z.B. Caja, einfach per rechte Maustaste hinzu- gefügt oder entfernt werden. neue Updates für Manjaro evtl. auch auf UBUNTU und DEBIAN Lauffähig um Freigaben leicht ohne sudo oder fstab per Gvfs im selben Verzeichnis zu verbinden siehe: https://sourceforge.net/projects/click-mount-samba-here/

A minimal linux rescue distribution with the goals of being small, compatible and very usable. Features as a cozy shell and a multitude of partition rescue/editing tools all based on up-to-date releases like 2.4.x kernel with USB support etc.

Small program for enumerate all the PCI and USB devices in system, check if the device is supported by the kernel, automatically load necessary modules for this devices. Used in small embedded systems with less disk space and stripped kernel features.

autoswap is a tool (written in Perl) that allows for swap space to be created automatically based upon the amount of RAM in the machine or configuration. Useful for cluster configuration.

bbiso is a shell script used to build a CD image for a bootable Linux system running entirely in RAM on a PC platform. An example file system image is provided. It is a rewrite and update of Philip Howard's bick-0.8.0 package.

biosconfig is a flexible tool to automate CMOS non-volatile store parameter modification.

The bootd project allows netbooting a wide variety of clients using different protocols using one configuration and one server daemon, with good configurability and diagnostics.

just like visudo, wrap the details of re-creating the /boot.scr file after editing it's source /boot.cmd . Packaged for Slackware ARM

Install, Accept, List, Remove and Set New, Current and Old linux kernels in the /boot directory. Inspired by the linux kernel "make install" target, and the /sbin/installkernel shell script. A profile "~/bootkernel.conf" or "/etc/bootkernel.conf" controls all aspects of bootkernel's behaviour - your chosen naming conventions, whether to maintain symbolic or hard links or neither, which filesystems (if any) need mounting and unmounting, and whether to delete redundant /lib/modules directories when removing the last corresponding kernel. "Install" copies kernel and other selected files to /boot, adding a ".new" extension. "Accept" moves current /boot files to ".old" extension, and moves those with ".new" to current, "List" shows all the kernels in /boot, marked as "new", "old", "current" and "executing" where applicable "Remove" deletes a specified kernel and associated files from /boot. "Set" modifies the targets of ".new" ".old" and the implicit .current links if any.

This is a really simple BOOTP server, which uses NIS maps to retrieve host information (host name, IP address).

Set of tools needed to setup and maintain encrypted partitions under unix systems (initially linux). Especially helpfull when doing root device encryption. Features xml configuration, multiple users, usb "tokens" (usb mass storage) and key hierarchy.

A GUI frontend for dd to create bootable ISO images for Linux.
