Tell me about it, gotta drag this old machine all the way up to the
forth floor. It was an inexpensive choice for a file server, and I was
happy to see the Gentoo Minimal CD booting (cause then I was sure it
would work).
Anyway, I had to go (I'm on the road right now) and left it compiling
a new kernel (manually this time), that I'll test tomorrow.
Is there any way to copy the LiveCD kernel and initrd so I can boot
the EXACT kernel the CD is using? This way I can troubleshoot this
damn thing without a LiveCD and chroot every 5 minutes...
There may be a way to copy those setting and such but I'm not sure how.
If Knoppix can do it there has to be a way. I read you can put Knoppix
on a hard drive too.
I can say one thing about the server, it has great cooling for a old
rig. I think they made it big and heavy so the fans would not push it
across the floor. LOL
I wonder if I can copy that to the floppy? I think the floppy works.
I'll check on that in a little bit. May save me from dragging that
thing in the house.
