Yes, this was the problem and the solution. I copied the errmsg.sys from the mysql installation (the one I compiled from source for this platform) into the slimserver/MySql directory and it solved the problem. Thanks! -- dbgurevich ---

I got it. You pointed me in the right direction. I was adding the command as its own line when I was supposed to add it to the kernel line -- I told you I was new to Linux. Any idea how to make that change to the kernel permanent? If not, I should have it figured out after I get some sleep. --

I don't think I installed anything more than lame and w32codecs after installing the base system. Using the *.tar.gz worked fine on my fileserver. Then again, it was about 80 days ago when I did all that. I suppose emerging it would be nice. Then it would be installed as a regular service. -- n

Thanks for your prompt response, Matthew. I eventually figured this out myself by reading various Kuro/Gentoo Wikis and came to almost the same solution. I got stuck on dev-libs/syck -- for some reason adding this to packages.keyword didn't help. (Was there some special reason you used * and not

Thanks for the response. I did some research and found that suggestion on a couple of web pages. However, if I add the command in Grub before the boot command I get something like "command not recognized" and if I add it after the boot command nothing changes. -- frankL

If you want a bare-bones OS to go along with your bare-bones hardware, try ClarkConnect. It was designed to be a lightweight and simple server OS. It is administered using a web interface (you can aslo use the commandline via puTTY). It includes some nifty modules that let you use it as a mail

Hi Guys, I've got experience of setting up Fedora and CentOS but I see Debian seems to be the fav flavor for SlimServer. I've just bought a really basic barebone Asus to act as a "server" for my Squeezebox with really basic cheap components. It was about £160 in AMD 3000+, 512 MB RAM & DVD Rom.
