Hi, I would be very interested in a possibility to create variables or macros within syslinux. One of the things I would like to have is a way to query DMI/VPD information, and use that as kernel parameters or to influence eg menu's or boot labels (based on system information). One of those very specific needs is to get the MAC address of the first onboard interface (which is available somewhere) from an isolinux boot and add it as a ksdevice= boo...

...tiple spaces. To improve user's display, hdt is now reducing multiple consecutive spaces into a single one. I.e: the cpu display would be far easier to read. If you found on your hardware, some devices reporting multiple 'stupid' spaces, tell us where and we'll fix it. 5?) Adding VPD support HDT is now featuring VPD support (Virtual Product Data). Very few hardware sounds to implement it but some users request it. Its available from the main "VPD" menu in the graphical mode in with the "vpd> show" command (CLI). I hope you'll like this new release,...

Hi All: Is there a utility available that will allow for the dump/display of the bad track table of a SCSI drive. We had this capability on SCO OSR5 but I have not been able to locate anything similar for Linux. The closest I have found is the badblocks utility that is part of the e2fsprogs package but this appears to only test for bad blocks not display the current bad block table contents. I

Hi, I'm having lots of difficulties with BCM5719, which is the default network card of HP Proliant DL 360 G8 servers. I can get a few ping replies before I get a couple of these: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Then everything hangs. Can not log in using ssh.

I've recently come across a thread in the CentOS forums [0] regarding the solution to getting hardware requiring the cciss driver, such as HP ProLiant G5 systems, to install and boot with CentOS 7. The thread was a start in the right direction, but I believe I've determined a better workflow and feel that it would benefit the community to have this published either in the release

...hdt tries to open both modules.pcimap & modules.alias to find the associated kernel modules. To override the default values, users can use the modules_pcimap=<filename> and modules_alias=<filename> boot options. Some minor visual improvements/bug fixes were also done regarding the VPD, PCI & memory display. Note that hdt's menu is now using the full screen instead of having a black line at the bottom of the screen. Enjoy this release ! 0.3.2 is available at : http://konilope.linuxeries.org/hdt/hdt_0_3_2.c32 Feel free to report any bugs/comments/ideas on HDT's mai...

...he appropriate nesting syntax in the model we are running (as gleaned from Venables and Ripley 1999, 3rd edition), with stations being nested within sites. To provide an example of the syntax, the full model with which we began is: TXa <- coxph(Surv(dt, status)~site/station+foodtype*foodsize+vpd, data=TXbait) This obviously generates a large number of terms, even as we work down to the reduced model. Is this syntax testing what we think it is testing, i.e. are we controlling for station effects in our results? Are there potential problems with our approach to the analysis of which we s...
