The nc200* image that is used with the LANforge appliance can also boot from a USB storage device on many machines. Assuming your hardware is supported, this is a good way to try out LANforge without having to install Linux from scratch. Unless your machine has exactly 4 ethernet interfaces, you will must reconfigure LANforge to be aware of your network cards once the system has booted. All changes will be saved through reboots (using the USB disk as storage.

No. This would require Apple System Software, involving issues similar to those mentioned above for ROM images. Except that System Software may be downloaded freely from Apple. Maybe someday. The next computer that I plan to emulate is the Mac II, which has color. (See bounties) Meanwhile, you could try Basilisk II. It might be possible to hack the ROM of the Mac Plus to support larger screen sizes.

These instructions are intended for users who do not have a built-in floppy drive in the machine being used to run the LANforge bootable CD-ROM. The USB floppy drive should already have a disk in it with a license.txt file that you obtained from sales@candelatech.com. Insert the Universal Host Controller Interface Host Controller Driver kernel module: insmod /lib/modules/2.6.18.2/kernel/drivers/usb/host/uhci-hcd.ko Copy the license.

Most laptops now use lithium ion (LiIon) batteries. LiIons should be managed differently from the NiCad or NiMH batteries used in older laptops. In particular, LiIons should not be run all the way down to prevent "memory effect". First, they don't have a memory effect, and second, running them down tends to reduce their capacity. If the laptop does not need the battery it should be run to about 40% charge and stored in a cool place.

No problem. Live View will automatically detect this and build a Master Boot Record for your partition allowing it to boot. Yes, simply select all of the chunks in the browse dialog by using Ctrl + Click. Live View sorts the chunks by their file extensions so be sure that the chunks have either numerically or alphabetically ordered file extensions. Yes, there is full support for the primary operating system on the machine and partial support for the secondary operating system.

While traditional computer systems typically use hard disk drives for storage of data and programs, solid-state systems instead rely on devices without moving parts. The solid-state advantage is the decreased chance of hardware failure, especially in harsh environments. Solid-state systems can be constructed by substituting flash memory for hard disks.

A The USB Flash Disk Utility can do this in Windows 98 and Windows ME only. To do this open the USB Flash Disk Utility and go to the Partition tab. Check the Bootable Disk checkbox, select your USB boot type, and then click the Partition button.

Answer: Yes. UltraISO copies CD to ISO image file with a sector by sector method, so it can retain all information of the compact disc, includes boot information. Therefore, the CD is still bootable when you make the CD image with UltraISO and burn it back to a CD-R.

We suggest Fedora Core 2, but other distributions should work fine so long as you install the correct Linux kernel. In order for the feature that allows you to have multiple ports on the same subnet, on the same machine, work, you must have arp_filter support compiled into your Linux kernel (the LANforge install script will warn you if it does not exist). Any kernel of version 2.4.5-pre3 or higher should support arp_filter.

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus and is available on all new computers. Depending on the age of your computer, it may or may not have USB ports available. If not, the Sylencer will plug into a standard computer sound card, although this will not provide as good recognition as with a USB adapter. To see if your system supports USB, go to http://www.usb.org/ and download and run the free utility 'USBready' that will determine whether or not your system supports USB.

Connecting the digitizer with Serial (RS232) or USB will be determined by the application software you are using with the digitizer. Please consult your application support for assistance.

Before inserting your USB memory stick, please log in to the machine directly (not via SSH from another system). Logging in at the console will ensure that the USB memory device is mounted with you as the owner. It is safest to insert the device into one of the USB ports on the front of the computer (rather than those on the back or on the keyboard).

Q: Which program do I use for word processing, spreadcheat calculations, image processing, burning, scanning, surfing, chatting...

First boot KNOPPIX with the memory stick inserted. Got to the KNOPPIX menu, Configuration, Save Configuration. When asked, choose /dev/sda1. When booting type knoppix myconf=scan home=scan at the boot prompt. This is an issue with the Dell BIOS. Simply pull out the power cord from your computer for a few seconds, and your computer should start again. You can also try passing "apm=off" or "apm=real-mode-poweroff" to the kernel during startup.

None! Do not use any option in your burning software to make the CD bootable. Just burn the ISO as an image, this will put all of the proper files on the CD in the proper locations and the resulting CD will be a perfect copy of the original Knoppix CD and will be bootable. If you take any option that makes a bootable CD, you will end up with a CD that does not boot into Linux/Knoppix.

SSH or telnet into the lanforge system as the root user. The default password for root is "lanforge". Send the /home/lanforge/lfdebug.tar.gz file to the Candela Support Team at support@candelatech.com with a description of the problem you are experiencing.
