Installation issues / Re: Fresh Beta2 install failed

ok, thanks charlie1953, will try that

PS: what are you going to fish (over there in the states i guess)? Here in Zurich/Switzerland the lakes are nearly dead and fishing means most of all waiting waiting waiting as opposed to 20 or 30 years ago

I have installed beta2 on a physical pc (which was perfectly supported as hardware by 7.10) by the internet method and everything seems fine till i reach the screen where it reads "Starting Core Services. Please be patient". There it stops and does not go any further and the if you move the mouse the screen turns white and the pointer is a black "x"
Any ideas?

Thanks
Roberto

Charlie1953 can you explain what exactly you did to get it working?
You say "so I logged in"... into the broken installation or did you reinstall.... ? Which  commands do you exactly mean?
I am newby in lmce and linux, please be patiente,
thanks
Roberto

OK so i used the DVD - it installed kubuntu but the LinuxMCE install script failed.
So I  logged in and ran the commands in the wiki (link provided by Freaky) - took a while but no problems encountered.
I have now successfully installed Beta2  - worked like a charm.
now the fun starts - thanks to all who have helped.

I did the dvd install (everything as a virtual machine on vmware server), configured network, installed vmware tools, installed lmce, reboot and i end up at a command line login... what do i do there or should i end up somewhere else? I logged in as the user I had created installing kubuntu. I tried the command /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh but it gives me errors

Any hint? Thanks

Thanks

Thanks, but i read the latest news and thought there now is a DVD installer, cause I had problems installing in the described way. I know, unfortunately I can't contribute as a developer, so I will just wait with patiente... but, when is a DVD installer expected more or less if I may ask?

Thanks

Installation issues / Where to downlaod the 810 DVD installation file?
« on: August 14, 2009, 05:33:14 pm »

I just read here http://linuxmce.org/index.php/developer/documentation that one may also contribute by translating. I offered my help in the form of translating docs to german, which might attract german speaking users from Germany, Austria and Switzerland (and asked if the comunity thinks this could be of help to the project); I put my name in "the list" but had no reaction on this.

Now I wonder where I should put the translated docs and which ones are most inportant and should be done first. Then I would like to survey how many clicks we get on those docs to see if it really is worth it (is this survey possible?.

What do you think?

Hi chriss

I had to add
Code: [Select]
iocharset=utf8 to the options of my /home mount on the MD to get such files to play.

/etc/fstab should contain a line somewhat like this:
Code: [Select]
//192.168.0.50/home /home cifs iocharset=utf8,forcedirectio,credentials=/usr/pluto/var/sambaCredentials.secret 1 1
br,

Hi Sambuca

I am having the same problem. Could you explain all that so that a linux newby like me can just follow instructions step by step?

Would appreciate very much
thanks

big - BIG shame on me... I was checking some of my old posts and found out that I never aswsered to those last questions in this thread  :-\  :-\  :-\

@dlewis
From my view I did not have to do anything really special to get it working, but I will try to setup my first wiki. But just to double check: what do you want me to submit different then this wiki entry? http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Testing_with_VMWare
Do you want more detail or just HOW I DID IT ?

@MarcoZan
I used 7.10

@tschak909
What would you like me to submit exactly? Virtually all virtual machine files?

@colinjones
I feel I need more then 4 GB of Ram cause my idea of a eaven more beautiful core/hybrid is, because it will stay on all the time anyway, to be able to install vmware on top of it and then some virtual machines on top... a copy of MS xp, a copy of freenas (for testing), an ipcop machine for testing and what not. I think this is very good because you need to have only one physical machine running all the time, safe energy, less noise, more green, less discussions with your girlfriend..."oh my god, 5 computers running in the house again at the same time! ;-)"...
