Is there is a way to specify a static IP address in the parameters supplied to the Linux kernel at boot time? I know that I can do it with a start-up script called from my rcS file but it would be really convenient to specify it in my boot parameters.
View 2 RepliesSo I installed the Unison synch software with sudo apt-get install unison-gtk. When I set up the two directories for synchronization it looks like this: $ unison ssh:\SERVER\pathpath /var/www/path/path/path

I need to show a static image with the logo of our department while Debian boots. Is there any easy way or tool to do this? (Any parameter of the kernel maybe?) It doesn't have to be anything fancy (like a progress bar)... just a plain an simple image.
I've seen many bootsplash projects..but most of them are broken. I tried splashy (which is available on the repo), but by the time it loads, my system is already booted, so I don't really like it. note that I don't have any Xorg server installed.

We swapped our 10Gig NIC Cards (Qlogic) with Emulex NIC cards NC550SFP. The server was rebooted and I get the following message:
dmesg | grep -i "emulex"
be2net 0000:18:00.0: Emulex OneConnect 10Gbps NIC initialization failed
be2net 0000:18:00.1: Emulex OneConnect 10Gbps NIC initialization failed
Earlier when there was Qlogic, we configured the two NIC cards for eth2 and eth3.
Now, in order for this server to show up these NICs, I used ifcfg -a and configured ifcfg-eth2 and ifcfg-eth3 and did a service network reload. The interface came up and all worked good.
But after the Qlogic was replaced with the Emulex and when I perform ifcfg -a, I don't see eth2 and eth3 or neither they are shown as some other names such as __tmp. I can't find the MAC addressess that are associated with them.
Is there any way that we can initialize these NIC cards and make them available in ifcfg -a so that, I can edit the mac ids of these NICs and configre ifcfg-eth2 and ifcfg-eth3.
I have a question about the CentOS boot process. During boot, following the initialization of the software RAID drivers, I get the message "Waiting for driver initialization", and the boot process hangs for about 20 seconds. It's not a big deal because I don't have to reboot often, but I'd like to know - is there a way to disable the functionality that causes this, whatever that is?

I tried using an awk gsub () command within the string instead of the two seds, but it did not work:
awk '{ print gsub(/<regex>/, <replace with>,$1), $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8}
the sed works ok, but it would be cooler to make the replacement within the awk command:
gsub(/->/,-> IN, $1)
Is there a way where i could replace the value of the $1 column in the awk print string?
Moving right along, I have a folder of MP3 files containing various Movie sound tracks and scores. I'm using Audio Tag Tool to tag all the files at once with an "Artist" of "Soundtrack", and to inherit the "Title" tag from the file name. After that, I will rename all the files (Using Audio Tag Tool -- awesome program, btw) with the format "<Artist> - <Title>.mp3"
The problem, is many of my files already contain the string "Soundtrack", which would be redundant. I happen to be a perfectionist, so I'm unable to ignore it and move on. Hence my question to you fine folk: I want to delete all instances of "soundtrack" (-i case irrelevant) in the filenames before I go through the above steps. But, its not quite that simple. This is a sample of some of the file names:

I installed slackware 12.1 from files i downloaded and converted to cd (images). There are six "disks" i downloaded from the slackware site and converted to images via a homemade .cmd in windows xp and then burned using imgburn.
I partitioned my hd (canibalized from an acquaintance's emachine and connected it to my desktop (1G ram, 2Ghz processor). Booted from disk 1 and fomatted the 80G HD for 2 partitions of linuxswapable at 2G apeice and 2 partitions of bootable linux. (Because i want to try another distro later). I ran the setup installing most everything and all seemed to go well. After i exited setup and restarted, it identifed the cd/hd as normal and then went into some sort of recovery mode with the emachine logo call pcangel, after which it tells me.

I just installed sever 9.1 with webmin. Everything was working great, untill it tried to set it to a static ip address. I tried to do it thur webmin. after it rebooted the server and it now stops at this line

Any idea what I did wrong? Or how I can fix this?
I've been having a problem getting a couple of services started at boot on my home server. I want to have my Openvpn daemon and a holdingnuts poker server start at boot. Neither of these start properly if placed at level S99 in the rc2 folder. Looking through the logs, it seems that the network is not up and running at this time. To confirm this, I placed the following in my rc.local file that runs at level S99.
Code:
ifconfig | cat > /home/username/network-status.txt
My ifconfig file shows the lo, eth0 and my bridged br0 interfaces. However, the br0 interface does not show an IP, netmask or anything else, indicating that it hasn't been brought up, yet. So this begs the question, if you have a static ip set (with a bridged connection for the VPN server), when does that actually get up and running? I would have thought that it should be up by the time that the last startup scripts are running. How can I ensure that these things run at startup, but not until the network is fully up and running?
I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.
[Code]....
One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?
Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.
After trying many diferent LiveCD Distros I found one that is pretty perfect for me, the SLAX one, especially because it gives me the option to start directly on a command line mode (wich is what I'm focusing now). So I'm wondering what others distros have this option at startup. I guess Slackware has this too right? Can you sugest any other distro with that option?

I know it wouldn't be much work to make it myself, but I figured I would find out if it already existed before doing it.
