Boot disk with quite a few linux tools available at boot time: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/slinky-boot.img Boot disk that boots, and runs "detect" a hardware detection utility: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/slinky/slinky-detect/slinky-detect-0.0.2.img It's automated, the machine is given a unique numeric ID, and the hardware info is written to the boot floppy in a file with that ID. There is room on the floppy for the info from quite a few machines. Hope you find them useful, - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+e42vn/07WoAb/SsRAiiGAJ40XbmGO8IwhK+O/HI8L27sa2a0BACgr0ms 36ow/FOvJ4QqpKNgOtXKZoE= =urWw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
