Having found the Netserver LPr to be not so debian friendly, I'm
looking to buy a coupla used 600mhz 2u units that are more friendly.
I'd like to be able to load mepis up in case of emergency etc, though
the unit's will have debian sarge installed.
I had a little problem with my LPr too - but once you know how to get
the hardware recognised it works fine!
I FINALLY figured out to do an Alt+F2 at install before partitioning and
"modprobe megaraid" so at least the system will install now. However,
the network cards are whipping my butt. :)
Or should I just resign myself to keep "rolling my own" :)
That's fine if you can get the parts nice'n'cheap - I paid about
£50.00 for the DL380 (2 x 733PIII, 1GB Ram), and about the same for
the Proliant 1850r's (2 x 550PII, 1GB Ram) - you'd be hard pushed to
build something comparable for that sort of money, especially
comsidering the Proliants are all "proper" server architecture..
That's what got me started. ha
So you have a clue on the Intelligent Pro 10/100 network card that comes
with this beast?
I tried modprobe e100 and modprobe eepro100 still can not recognize it.
