    i think you are refering to the older version...

    2005-05-08 is still uploading at 8k/s
    it contains all the transcode, dvdrip, goobox, ubm... etc

    i'm not sure whether everyone needs to killall esd or apply "How to configure sound to work properly in GNOME"... that's why i put it in troubleshooting section rather than in the script to force apply

    Re: Unofficial UbuntuGuide 5.04 Add-On CD Guide

    Thanks for the great tool!


    Some comments:
    - would be great if you could include gstreamer-lame and ati drivers in the next version

    - it enables "testing" and "unstable" repositories on marillat. I think it is too risky for most: these repositories may have dependencies which are impossible to satisfy without updating, say, your glibc. I think that reasonabel default would be to enable "stable" and live "unstable" and "testing" commented out. Those who want them can enale them manually.

    - as mentioned in another post, message "start automatic installation" is confisuing. Better: "start assisted installation" or somethign along these lines.

    - at the end of auto install script, it would be good to inform users that there are some apps that were copied to the hard drive cache but not installed (emacs, NVIDIA drivers,...) and tell that they can be installed using apt-get or synaptic.

    now 86% uploaded...

    i tried the ati previously... never got it to work... seems like not compatible with my ati card... will try again next time

    is gstreamer-lame = gstreamer0.8-lame_0.8.8-0.1_i386.deb?

    "start automatic installation"
    have changed to "start custom installation"

    message to inform users that there are still cached apps... on next release (too late to cancel now)

    reason i enable all the marillat is because some apps are there (e.g. acroread 7, transcode is in the testing)

    Re: Unofficial UbuntuGuide 5.04 Add-On CD Guide

    suddenly thought of this...

    ubuntu cd (install / live) doesn't have parted tool by default...

    i'm wondering... maybe i should combine the
    http://www.sysresccd.org

    with

    http://www.ubuntuguide.org/add-on-cd

    downside... 110MB extra from sysresccd

    NO please don't. Let's keep size to minimum. I plan on only having a small zip addon that only has things ubuntu add-on cd doesn't. In other words, stripping my current one down. However, if it shoots too 600MB then some may not want to dl it just to automatically install some of the popular addons. Ultimate Boot CD Full Edition has Insert Linux on it and has QTParted. It's a 154MB download zipped .iso image.

    Re: Unofficial UbuntuGuide 5.04 Add-On CD Guide

    ok... i've finished compiling the add-on enchanced version CD

    the normal version will only have the add-on content (337MB)

    the enchanced version will have the add-on content and sysresccd.org (446 MB)
    -partition resizer
    -image tools
    -etc

    going through one more round of testing... and will start upload

    reason of making this enchanced CD:
    currently, in order to resize windows before installing linux... one have to use some tools like Partition Magic (Floopy) or Mepis...

    now this Add-On-E will do the trick
