I just noticed Arkaine23 has another rev of his great overclockix going out. Has anyone tried this yet? I have 12 different computers running 3.7 right now in several diffeent modes:
1 server dishing out overclockix to six different headless clients
2 full hard drive installs
4 poor man HD installs
My secondary qustion has to do with the Poor man installs. Right now I enter the cheatcodes: knoppix26 fromhd=/dev/hda1 home=/dev/hda3
This works great except when the power fails, and then my poormen reboot and end up booting up like CD versions...that is they do not save their work to the hard drive so if the power fails again, they lose their work. Sometimes they even boot up as headless clients off the server.
I should explain the reason I set them up as pormen is because anything more than 6 headless clients and my switch seemed to get jammed and it would not boot all the clients. They are poor men because the harddrives are too small for full installs.
So, my question is, how do I set it up so the hard drive just boots up correctly without cheat codes. I have heard that I can edit my lio, but I am still pretty green in Linux and don't know the exact ins and outs of doing this.
If anyone can give me a nice step by step I would appreciate it..I did try over at the knoppix forum, but my head just ended up spinning...twelve different answers, and I am not sure if any of them are complete answers.
Thanks for your help, and hats off to Arkaine for his great programming!
