That stinks, but does not surprise me. I learned that a while back with extra drives. Since then, I disconnect all drives but the OS one when doing an install.

I did not know IPSecVPN app was working. Last I heard, it still needed to be worked on for Ubuntu.

Maybe you could help us with documenting the Ubuntu install. Something like going from Amahi Fedora 14 to Ubuntu with Greyhole. Would be good to capture the do's and don'ts for others.
I could do that. Its possible IPSecVPN isn't working, but I got my PSK so I figured it might be working. Only reason I have it is due to my job blocking UDP 1194.....

I have Parted Magic installed as a netboot app & am trying to install Clonezilla while I'm at work (i.e. started it on my desktop before I left).

As for the drives, I think they would have been fine had I not mounted them during the install.

Added a note to the Wiki about how one should not mount drives during the Ubuntu install.

Awesome...thanks! I did not know netboot was working for Ubuntu. I didn't think cpg had converted the RPM to a DEB. Guess if its working for you, he must have done it :)

It installed, haven't tried to boot anything yet.

And it won't work, it installs stuff, but not everything needed :(

cpg needs to get on that :)

Check the bug for the mount_shares_locally script, I got it working on my machine and uploaded the modified script.

Awesome! I figured it had something to do with the print share. I also had updated the wiki for the new script before you made the changes.

I used that script as the basis for mine. Now to get my VNC server running at all times.



In other news, OpenVPN just starts then dies on me :(

Can you check the logs? I am using OpenVPN on 64-bit and is working fine for me.

Jun 27 08:08:27 hda ovpn-openvpn[15954]: PLUGIN_INIT: could not load plugin shared object /usr/lib64/openvpn/plugin/lib/openvpn-auth-pam.so: /usr/lib64/openvpn/plugin/lib/openvpn-auth-pam.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This fixed it for me, not sure what happened though.

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/openvpn /usr/lib64/openvpn

Ok, we may need to modify the app then. We have a symlink to do that, but it might not be at the right level. Will investigate more to see what is going on.
