Booting Mepis from USB cd rom

by Sean Flynn

Just acquired a new laptop that doesn't have an internal cd rom drive, just a "d-bay" usb cd drive. I had been using Mepis on my previous laptop, and I enjoyed it. But the Mepis Live CD chokes when I try to boot from it. The cd does boot in other pcs, so the media is good. I checked my bios boot settings, but I can boot Knoppix and Ubuntu live cds. I figure that to get other Mepis booted there must be a cheat code I can pass, but my little bit of googling didn't help. Couldn't find anything on the Mepis forums either. Could anyone explain what's going on, or point me somewhere for more knowledge on it. I'd like to understand more how a live cd boots and what the difference between a usb cd and an internal cd rom drive are.

Re: [Wlug] dhcpd question

by Jared Greenwald

If you don't have a pool and just specify the clients you want to allow, then that would do essentially the same thing, no? Except that it would also block all other unknown clients, not sure if that was what you were going for or not... -Jared On 5/31/06, Eric Martin <freak4uxxx(a)gmail.com> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Does anybody know how to block a specific mac address from getting a > dhcp addres in isc dhcpd?

This looks like a really cool idea. http://www.boxesandarrows.com/view/an_open_source_conference_barcamp It was brought up on the Fedora Marketing list to see what people think of it for the next Fedora Users and Developers Conference (FUDcon).

dhcpd question

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Does anybody know how to block a specific mac address from getting a dhcp addres in isc dhcpd? I know I can do it with ip tables, and I know that they will still be able to set a static ip, but I need to do it this way.
