Morphix release

[Alextreme]

Well, been working my *ss of (totally borked a number of CDRW's), but Morphix is becoming usable (with 2 mainmodules, and a number of mini's). Got a sf project page up, if anyone wants to help out just let me know.

If all goes well, i'll have some time this afternoon to start uploading iso's and modules to my mirror, interested if it meets up to expectations. Havn't included any changes of 20-1-2003 into the Basemodule, and it still hasn't any way to install to hdd, but it's coming along quite nicely, imho

Note: I've mentioned privately to a number of people Morphix would be a total rewrite, but i reconsidered and decided that building ontop of KnopBase/KNOPPIX would be a whole lot faster. sorry if i got your hopes up, but otherwise it would have taken 2 months(years?) instead of 2 weeks

(oh yeah, i'll throw up some screenshots this evening, the XP-minimodule is really bad

seems your mirror is down.. may i sugest you use the sourceforge mirrors?

[Alextreme]

Mirror down?

ftp://dl.xs4all.nl/pub/mirror/drupal/Morphix works perfectly here, got the url wrong in my former post. It should work (anonymous ftp), uploading with 2MB/s

Everything is uploaded now, also included tools.tar.gz, it has a modified compress-app, modified cloop, example commands and a personal cleaningscript for /var (wasnt satisfied with apt-get clean, i'll merge it with Knoppix.clean lateron).

Have fun!

PS. included is also the source, not that my modifications are that earthschokking

Just wondering if Morphix is on any other mirrors. I can't connect witj Gftp & I'm on dial-up so I need to be able to resume a download.

Thanx,

Roadie, you may want to use wget -> "wget -c ftp://..."
It works well. I had a flaky connection and lost net access dozens of times on a large file, but wget handled it fine without corrupting the data.

hmm, strange that some people are having problems, could you mail me the (g)ftp-output? It works perfectly here, but if there are problems i'll appreciate it if you can give me some feedback that i can pass on to xs4all...

Worked fine for me, but two quick questions, Alex.

Can I rawrite the boot.img to make the cd floppy bootable?

and

Is there any way to save changes to the environment, eg- floppyconfig?

Would that require a remaster?

Very fast, though...love it!

IDHTFI (I dont have the foggiest idea )

try it, let me know if it works. I'll have a look at it later today

I'm looking into persistant settings, but in this release there isn't a way. I might add it in a minimodule (floppy/hdd/cdr-multisession?)

great to hear that you like it, if you have more questions or ideas just let me know!

The only output from Gftp is "host not found"
I get the same with wget as well, Galeon, Mozilla connect fine, just can't resume a download

Thanx,
