[leaf-user] LVS on top of Leaf?

2002-05-07 Thread Andy McLeod

A quick search of the archives has brought up one or two references to
people playing with Linux Virtual Server on top of LEAF/LRP but no
definitive evidence of success.

Anyone out there built a working LEAF based LVS redirector? Any chance of
sharing knowledge/code?

If not I guess I'll have to break out that compiler again

thx/andy

RE: [Leaf-user] Compact Flash

2002-04-23 Thread Andy McLeod

I'll leave the experts to comment on the software how-tos. Suffice to say if
you follow the instructions for setting up an IDE drive it is essentially
the same.

I would like to recommend an excellent source of supply for CF to IDE cards.
See

http://www.pcengines.com/cflash.htm

The cards are cheap, reliable and usually shipped the next day. I have
ordered several and have always had good service. (I am not connected with
the company.)

 Hello,
 I have been using both Dachstein and Bering for the last few months,
 I now want to start working with compact flash cards, can
 anyone point me in
 the right direction to start off.
 I am just looking for some general links to recomended cards
 and where to
 look for How-To's etc.
 I will probably be back looking for lots more information
 once I get started
 :}
 Thanks

 Paul

RE: [Leaf-user] serial console access

2002-04-16 Thread Andy McLeod

I would support Eric's request but understand the cost. But how about
providing an alternate kernel for those of us who want it. I know it is more
effort for you Jacques but there does seem to be a community of interest out
here who would appreciate it.

 issue?

 Based on the above statement Mr. Nilo is awaiting feedback from us to
 determine whether the serial module will be compiled in. I would like to
ask
 that everyone who wants it to please be sure and hit the list with that
 request so that the Bering team is aware of our interest. Here is mine...

 Bering Team, please compile the serial module into the kernel for the rc2
 release. It would be greatly appreciated.

Eric:
I am afraid I am going to disappoint you. I have been thinking about
this issue and the only usage I see for serial built into the kernel is
the ability to see the kernel logging messages on your serial terminal.
Everything else can be done by putting the serial.o in /boot/lib/modules
Once logged in the kernel logging messages can then be seen with dmesg
Also you won't generally start directly with a console-only monitoring.
You will generally setup your floppy to configure it on a normal
machine and at the very end switch to console monitoring facility.
Finally the cost of serial on the kernel is 10K. Quite significant from
a floppy point of vue.

RE: [Leaf-user] OSPF on LEAF?

2002-03-12 Thread Andy McLeod

Thanks George. I was beginning to feel unloved. ;-)

I have been able to find some references to brave souls who have combined
LEAF and Zebra through the Zebra mail list so I am following up there. Will
let this list know if I learn anything useful.

Well, since it's been sitting for 3 days without a reply, I'll take a
quick stab at it.

Frankly, OSPF scares me on Ciscos, and they're at least sorta designed for
it. =)

I don't know too much about OSPF in general, but if you do, then from what
I've been told the Zebra implementation is pretty easy for OSPF. I
personally would rather use default route/weighted route methods rather
than OSPF unless there's a pressing need to do so - such as the two
routers mentioned happen to be in totally different locations
topography-wise. Even then, it could be sticky.

Not much help at all, I know, but at least a we don't know is better
than no comment.

RE: [Leaf-user] newbie question (Bering/2.4/IDE)

2002-02-27 Thread Andy McLeod

First familiarise yourself with the general methods for running from hard
disk via the excellent HOWTO on the LEAF site.

Bering's kernel has module support for IDE built in (always a good idea to
check the kernel config file which most developers provide with the dist so
you can check what is in and out of the kernel). This means that you need to
load the ide modules at boot time. The ide modules are available from
leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/ and are called ide-mod.o, ide-disk.o and
ide-probe.mod.o. The procedure for adding modules to /boot/lib/modules is
described in the docs on Jacques' LEAF site.

Finally make sure you follow the HOWTO on the necessary changes to syslinux
and it works. How do I know? Because I happen to have done it on Monday.

Good luck

Subject: [Leaf-user] newbie question (Bering/2.4/IDE)


Hi all...I had successfully finished a previous install with a 2.2.19-IDE
kernel and run from a small IDE HD.

What I would like to do is repeat this with a 2.4 kernel (currently messing
around with Bering Beta4...no probs running from floppy).  What do I need to
do to make this run from a hard drive?

I'm hoping for something other than compile a 2.4 kernel with IDE support
enabled, but I'll try to if I have no choice (severe lack of experience
with compiling a kernel on my own).

Is there a 2.4-IDE kernel out there?  Am I stupid, and there's some simple
config option to make the Bering 2.4 kernel boot from my HD?

I'm running this on a Dell PowerApp Web 100 (single PIII-73/256MB/dual
EEPro100) and using Bering Beta4/Syslinux 1.66 on my HD.

Any info is *greatly* appreciated.

TIA

Adrian
