[Ubuntu] SMP V7 Bootable Folding Flash Drive with Remote Monitoring - Page 3

post #21 of 36
Great, thanks kubed! Should have set up this before the CC if I had found a couple of old rigs earlier.

If you wanna boot to CLI (no GUI) change this line in syslinux.cfg which is located in root of the thumb drive (while in your main OS) in the first menu entry, it's called unetbootindefault:
Code:
append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash -- persistent
to (add text after quiet splash)
Code:
append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash text -- persistent

Why would you wanna do this? To be able to read headless (ie no monitor connected). thumb.gif

However I can't get v7 monitoring to work (haven't had any luck with any piece of hardware; remote, local, Windows, Linux), but that's not the fault of this guide.

Not sure what happened but upon restarting the neither did the client start on its own nor did it retain any of my information... tho FAH was still there.

The part where it says reboot and boot from USB, I'm assuming you'd just leave it at the default option and it would all just work yes?

Did you check for a FahCore_a4 process by typing top in a terminal (it will list current processes ranked by CPU usage, should be n*100 where n is you're total thread count).

It should work that way, booting from the USB if that's the setting in BIOS.

Yup, basically. And on the loss of your information, that keeps happening to me on a completely separate FAH v7 windows config that I've been doing, but once you set it again it stays, it seems

Do you have a wireless card in your machine in addition to an ethernet port? The only way you could be getting multiple IP addresses at once is if you have two active interfaces
