okay... let me continue on with my problems...    I've copied the files and it ran the diskless setup okay


on second boot it started refreshing the repos (apt-get update I guess) but I got 404 not found for the last two (linuxmce) repos

the unable to setup(or find) pluto-nvidia-driver-  (or something similar) followed a few lines later


and a few lines after that I got blue screen with

AVWizard
"failed to setup x"
"ok"


and frozen at that...     further help needed pls!


so I've noticed it's the same problem at the core...

btw, this is massive overkill for an MD... its not Windows after all. Understood, if it is just the hardware you had lying around, but 0.5G-1G is plenty, and video in the 6200-7300 range is perfectly adequate.

I plan to have win installed on the hdd so I can play some games when I feel like it on my big screen :)


@xyman2008
the files are ~750mb each


how come this files are missing?  and there is nowhere even a hint about it at the wiki pages?

Okay...  here are some more details as I seem to be stuck at this point:


Core:
dedicated computer that I also use for some basic surfing...  it's installed as primarily PC but the LinuxMCE core software is running all the time.
It is AMD Athlon 64 3200+ running linuxmce core 710 i386
It is a fresh kubuntu install and than linuxmce via CDs (as I have multiple partitions on the disk, using the DVD to wipe everything doesn't seem very practical)...

I've also tried the amd64 versions but had the same problem with MDs


MD:
I have one HTPC with intel dual core and 4gb ram, nvidia 9600 gt /w1g ram connected via dvi2hdmi to full hd lcd tv

diskless setup failed


tried booting my gaming comp as a MD (c2d e8400 with 4g ram, and dual sli 9800 gtx cards) with the same result.


what i've noticed is that now that I've reinstalled the core with the i386 software, the htpc was running the diskless setup script for some 5 minutes before I got the failed msg. Previously it would pop up almost immeditelly.



Some1 please help :/

Installation issues / DISKLESS SETUP FAILED
« on: February 08, 2009, 06:20:13 pm »
Hi,

I keep getting the DISKLESS SETUP FAILED after the MD announces itself to the core.

I realise that I am supposed to change the amd64 to i386 for intel chipsets, but even though I change it and refresh everything, the MD reports the amd64 architecture just a few lines before DISKLESS SETUP FAILED

Under the web admin it is listed as i386.


Core is amd64 3200+ with the amd64 version installed. The MDs are intel c2d and dual core comps...



What am I doing wrong?


thanks!
