Pilot Linux Customise
People,
I am investigating the possalilty of using Pilot Linux for client PCs on our corporate network. To do this, I would need the following things customised for IT Management to consider it. I have searched for most of these things, but am not a Linux / Knoppix guru, and would appreciate any help. Here we go...
What would you recommend for minimum hardware spec on the client desktops (processor / memory / video) using Pilot ?
Has anyone tried Pilot or Knoppix with the Via Eden platform ?
Could the boot screen image be replaced with (our) corporate logo ?
Could the distribution be made to NOT eject the CD when reseting ?
Could the distribution be made to Power Off, rather than reset ?
Could the distribution be made to not ask for 'enter' to be pressed when booting - just boot, and display the login for the MS Terminal Server ?
How could the distribution be made to provide a different hostname each time booting to the MS Terminal Server ?
I have emailed these questions to the link on the website - but haven't received any reply as yet.
Thanks in advance,
Onion...
