Re: [Linuxcoe-devel] Mandriva support

[Mayes, L. <lee...@hp...>]

Hi Bruno,

  Mandriva support is not fully implemented.  Since I couldn't figure out a way to create a standalone mini-iso for Mandriva testing I was simply creating the auto_inst.cfg script and using SIM and POST_TRIGGER to move it to a place my canned VMWare boot image would find it via http.  That's kind of where I left it.

  If you've got a virgin mandriva image tarball I can poke that into and reference I'll press on, or perhaps just clean up what we have.   What's your usage model in this case?  I'll see if I can get that working.  Also, I think the last time I tested it was 2008, so there may be some changes required in the config file it generates.

Best Regards,

Lee

Better late than never ;-)

Ok. Rights were incorrect, so there was nothing. But even with the
/var/log/linuxcoe-sd dir belonging to apache, still no log created :-(

Yes, I've seen that there are differences. But I think I'm not there yet
:-( I've included some changes, and will continue to improve, but I've
not even the start.

The only log I have is the apache one:

Does it ring a bell on your side ?
(Forgot to precise I'm using the RPMs made with pb svn rev 758 and cvs
for LinuxCOE from couple of seconds ago.

What I don't really understand is the fact my variables are not use.
Maybe the defs field above is related to that ?
