hi,
i am using ubuntu ultimate edition 2.2 (32-bit).
& i not yet found any crash.
also it is loaded with lots of new themes which are more attractive,
new features like partition editor, firewall configuration, backup
facility, & many packages.
must say it is ultimate.

Prathamesh.

hello all,
I created the much awaited deb packages for GNUKhata.
thy are right now available at http://kk.hipatia.net/public/gnukhata/
(/ at the end needs to be included ).
I am facing a few problems as this is actually the very first time that
I am building deployment quality deb packages.
Right now the way those packages are built, I am sure that they only
work on ubuntu 9.04 or perhaps the latest debian.
I want to make GNUKhata work on ubuntu 9.04, 8.04 LTS, and also on
debian.
Can some one volantear for helping me do this?
Further more, regarding daemons, I checked on the links provided by
siddhesh and JTD in particular.
the tutorials were good to understand basic daemon creation. But there
are 2 major problems.
Firstly GNUKhata is not a c program but an interprited python based
application.
So daemonising it is alltogether a different ball game.
Secondly, if some one could help out in the deb and rpm (deb on
priority ), then I would also like to know if there is a way out to
write some code that automates the setup completely?
For example on any distro the server deb package should first check for
dependencies and install them if necessary, then create the gnukhata
user, which is dedicated to run the gnukhata application server.
Then the deb file should also generate the basic database and add the
necessary tables.
Is this possible to do with a deb file?
I am sure then we can easily make an rpm by even using alien or some
other software.
Any help from Kartik, Rajiv or any one would be appreciated.
As I mentioned the rudimentary deb packages are available at the url
given at the top of this email.
Help me to help making GNUKhata deployable.
Thanks in advance.
happy hacking.
Krishnakant.
Dear Members,
Your expertise is appreciated.
Goal : To be able to setup OpenSuse11.1 DVD version on my EEEBox first & then on other computers using ftp install , my Vista Laptop running Filezilla or xlight will do the FTP work
I have tried a lot of things to boot the OS using Pen drive but always ended up on the linuxrc screen
To avoid the "SHA1 Sum wrong" error I now Type "Linux install insecure=1",but I still get "No Repository Found".
I have extracted the OpenSuse DVD ISO using 7zip and put it in d:\xampp\htdocs\download
So for ftp the path is ftp://192.168.0.101/ & for http://192.168.0.101/download
I have made \htdocs\download home directory for ftp
Both Ftp & HTTP install start but end with error "no repos... found"
I have also tried copying the ISO content into USB, renaming isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg & using syslinux to make it bootable. It too didn't work
With regards
Deepak

Dear Members,

I have the following Hardware at my disposal
My Laptop with Vista Business ,This laptop has the DVD ISO image of 11.1.

I then started FTP server on the my WinBox and extracted the ISO to a folder using 7zip . The Linux rc opens the ftp server & then it pops up an error " NO repository found" or "Ftp://192.168.0.100/%2Fboot/i386/branding SHA1 Sum Wrong"
After this it exists setup ,How can I solve this..

All CDs are about Rs. 50 and DVDs about Rs. 100 . The prices may vary a bit since they are pegged to the US Dollar [ A PayPal Requirement ] . Big Distro Packs like Debian are at a discounted price of about Rs. 250.
