Fedora :: LiveCD - DVD With RPM Capability ?
Sep 22, 2010
I tried the rescue mode of the install DVD. It doesn't have any package management initialized. What I want to do is have a LiveCD environment where I can install an RPM package into that live running system (not persistently ... but pretending so in RAM).
Ubuntu can do this. If I choose "Try Ubuntu" in the boot menu selection, I get a live system that has the DEB package manager ready to go. It can install more packages that depend on packages already installed.
I just want the same but having Fedora. If 16 GB of RAM is not enough, I can get more.

I am looking to setup some computers as thinclients to connect to my MS Terminal Servers. We have a homebrew application that configures RDP sessions. A user logs into a webpage that dynamically generates a "launch.rdp" file. This file is generated to balance the load between servers.What I'd like to do is configure an image to boot up into Mozilla. When the user goes to the webpage, I'd like the launch.rdp file to open up in a terminal server session.I've tried with rdesktop and tsclient, but unfortunately neither would work with a "rdp" file.

I want to take out the multilib capability for my system. Is it as simple as using "slackpkg clean-system", to remove all the compat32 pkgs, then using "slackpkg upgrade-all" to replace all the gcc and glibc packages?The reason I ask, is that I only used the multilib to be able to run Google Earth. There are no other x86 packages on the system. I have another x86 computer that will run Google Earth if I need it. It just wasn't worth it for this one package.

I have a dual boot -Windows7 and Ubuntu 10.04.I have no problems connecting to my modem/router with Windows7. Wireless works just fine.With Ubuntu 10.04, after many months with no problems, I suddenly lost capability of connecting to the modem/router. No hot spots show up as they previously did. I have my own wireless setup as "hidden". When I try to connect to it, I get an info box stating "Wireless Network disconnected..

I know that this question has been asked many times across many forums and last night, I finally figured out how to do it from Windows. I'll post the procedure for an existing Linux distro later. "Is it possible to run a LiveCD iso off of the hard drive?" Yes it is. Here's how:
1. Download the Fedora LiveCD from here.
2. An .iso file is basically like an archive; except that it's made for CDs. Extract the entire file into a vfat, ext3, or ext2 partition. I use WinRAR (for Windows) as my extractor. IMPORTANT: This method won't work if you extract the file into a NTFS partition.
3. Install UNetbootin and run it. Select "Fedora" as the distribution and "10 Net_Install" as the version. At the bottom of the dialogue screen, under type, select "Hard Drive" and next to that, select your partition (C:, D:, etc.).
4. Press OK. Unetbootin will install a basic GRUB bootloader. When it promts you to restart, press Cancel. You don't want to restart... yet...
5. Browse to your Windows partition (most likely C. You should see a folder called "unetin". Browse into that folder and you'll see a file called "menu". Open it with Notepad.
6. Paste this text at the bottom of the file:
title Fedora LiveCD
root (hdx,x) "NOTE: Replace hdx,x with your partition holding the extracted iso. Most likely, it'll be either (hd0,0), (hd0,1), or (hd0,2)"
[code]...
7. Restart and select "Unetbootin" when Windows shows your Bootloader. Wait 3 seconds and press Esc.
8. Select "Fedora LiveCD" and press enter. You should boot into the LiveCD. It might be slow, so be patient and it'll come up.
EDIT: COMMON MISTAKES AND ERRORS:
1. Grub Error 15: File not found: It's likely that you made a typo in the menu file or that you didn't set your /dev/xxx (hdx,x) parameters correctly. Try changing those around and it should work.

I had a dual boot windows xp / ubuntu system. I needed to put more disk space on my system so I had the win xp system disk cloned. After doing that my ubuntu installation no longer appears.
The Ubuntu system was and is on a separate hard drive. So I am fairly sure that it is intact.
Is there someway I can restore the boot information?

I am running dual boot Linux Mint/Windows 7 Home Premium on a Dell 560s Computer. Recently, had an event which required me to use the Windows 7 recovery CD to fix my mbr and rebuild it. After doing so I discovered when I boot the computer I know longer have the option to select either Windoze or Linux.

I have two partitions Windows XP (which was already installed before Ubuntu) and Ubuntu 9.1 (which I installed later).Now the XP doesn't boot anymore (sorry but I need it sometimes), the Windows screen with the progress bar appears and then it reboots after a couple of secs.
I can access to the XP partition from Ububtu.Of course I don't want to damage Ubuntu during the XP recovery action.

In my rather unsuccessful attempt to get gvim working properly (see [url] )
I am now considering using some other editor in windows which will allow editing of ssh shell script *on the linux server* directly.
At the moment I'm using winscp's editor which is no better than notepad really (no syntax colouring / code folding / colour settings)

Just wondering now I see computers everywhere with 6G of ram or more if the new 32b kernels are going to be setup for large amounts of ram or will they still need to be recompiled? Also will there be better ssd support for things like "trim"? I know you edit the fstab to get the Linux version of trim but I am just wondering if stuff like that will just be automatic or if I will continue to need to tweak. I like to tweak but sometimes its the lack of need for tweaking that makes me like slack.

I have an SSH server running on my netbook on port 2222 and a VNC server running on 5901. The router only has port 2222 open to the laptop.
I use Connectbot on the Droid to connect t my Ubuntu via 2222 with a local port forward enabled 5901 to 192.168.1.111 (laptop IP) port 5901.
Once the conenction is established, I use VNC viewer on the Droid and have it go to 127.0.0.1 port 5901 (to be forwarded by Connectbot over the SSH pipe).
I want to take it a step further. I want to administer my DGL-4500 router without having to remote control the laptop and open firefox. My router doesn't allow SSH.
An obvious solution (in my small mind) would be to install a simple web server process on say port 8080 and do a port forward on the phone to 8080. Then whenever that port is hit, I would want some process that would take the request and pop that person over to 192.168.1.1...
Any ideas on how I could do this OR a better idea on how to do it better without opening the router to the outside world?
I am theorizing I could do a VPN server instead and then find a VPN app. With a VPN, I am theorizing once again I owuld assume an IP address in my home network and then just type 192.168.1.1 on my phone and connect in that way?

I've been using Tucan for Rapidshare downloads, but one thing that bothers me about it is that, as far as I can tell, Tucan doesn't have resume capability. I have a wireless connection which occasionally falters, and I have to restart all downloads from 0%. Is there a download manager for Ubuntu that will recognize my premium Rapidshare account and that also has resume capabilities?

I'm looking for a music player, similar to rhythmbox, but one that allows for drag 'n drop mp3 cd burning capabilities.
If I'm not clear, I want to be able to drag songs from my library into a playlist, or whatever, just like rhythmbox will do for audio cd's, but be able to burn it as an mp3 cd to allow for long playlists.
My music folder is close to 10000 files in MANY MANY different folders. So making a long mp3 mixtape would be much easier if I could do it in the same program that already has every song in front of me.

AMD IIX6 1090T cpu
ASUS M4A89GTD PRO USB3 MB

1- 2GIG DDR3
OS DEBIAN SQUEEZE
I only recently started using and noticed thes errors.
I checked my system bios, ECC was not enabled because, when I setup mobo I selected system defaults instead of doing them manually. So I enabled them.
The message has not gone away.
I looked up the message and it shows in bug list.

1. Had I have enabled Ecc before installing Debian, would I be getting this message.
2.How do I apply patch.
3. I only have 3mem sticks instead of 4' should I take out the 3rd or add another?

In order to mitigate risks linked to the use of the classic syslog protocol (spoof, replay, tampering, lost messages...) I am looking for a product implementing the syslog-sign capability: [URL] which is still a draft in the IETF for the moment. On NetBSD, the sylog daemon is able to run this feature: [URL]. Did anybody tried this feature on a Linux system?

Been a ubuntu user for almost a year. I've decided to branch out and install fedora on my other laptop.
Currently I'm trying to create a bootable usb using this guide:[url]
Using rpm to check for livecd-tools tells me it's not installed.
I tried to get it through apt-get install livecd-tools. But that didn't find anything.
I tried installing yum and to obtain it but to no avail. Same error as apt, "Not available".

I have centos 5.5 on vmware, and I'm trying to boot up from the live cd so that I can fix some issues that I'm having. I have vmware pointing at my cd drive, I mount the cdrom and when I ls, it lists the contents of the cd. But when I go to reboot centos, it doesn't boot from the cd and just boots normally.

I installed audacity but it doesn't import mp3's. I even reinstalled the version from the packman repository but still no mp3 support. Tried to update it, can't figure out how to get it to play mp3's.
I am just looking for a media player I can open mp3's in, change the pitch and then export again.

LaserJet Pro CP1525NW. HP website mentions that it is compatible with Linux. However, this particular model cannot be found at Linux Foundation's OpenPrinting Database. As you can see here, there is no mention of HP LaserJet Pro CP1525N which makes me worried. Also, the printer is not listed in HP Linux imaging and printing.
What are your thoughts and do you have experience with this printer? What other Color Laser printer do you recommend? The fact that the that printer's specification on HP website says that it is compatible with Linux, yet it is not listed on HPLIP nor in Openprinting makes me nervious.
