Trying to get netboot backup working

[yaochaos]

Hello,

I'm trying to made netboot bare-metal backup works on my amahi 7 server. I tried both redo and clonezilla. I was able to get redo running by manually copy installation file into netboot folder (for some reason netboot installs to /var/lib/tftpboot but redo installs to /usr/share/amahi-netboot/tftp). But I couldn't get network connection within redo. When I tried to install clonezilla, it fails with the following log:

I'd like to ask for some advice here, if anyone has similar experience can share, or can point me to the right direction. Many thanks!

Neither of these apps are ready for Amahi 7. They still need work and testing before they will work I would expect.

We have to get amahi-netboot package updated to work correctly with Amahi 7. Last I recall, it was still on the list.

EDIT: Recommend you check the app status before installing for Fedora 19. If it's ALPHA or BETA, most likely it will not install or work correctly.

Once we get things situated with the apps, they will be announced and moved LIVE.

Thanks for clarify this bigfoot65. I'll wait for the stable release. Thanks for making amahi BTW!

No problem. We hope to get something rolling soon. So much to do and not enough resources.
