Yes, Chris. That's precisely how you do it. Here's an example which supplies the static address 192.168.1.11 to the machine where FC is to be installed using that machines second ethernet device: At the boot> prompt you would type something like: text telnet ip=192.168.1.11 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.1.254 ksdevice=/dev/eth1 Obviously, this goes on one line and needs to be adjusted for local circumstances. PS: You can also add this syntax in advance when booting from a USB stick. Just insert it all in the kernel arguments in the proper stanza of syslinux.cfg, and change the top line to say "default text" Chris Norman writes: > How do you do a telnet install? > > I mean, would I stick the disks in, start the install and then telnet? > > Cheers, > > Chris Norman. > > <!-- chris.norman4 at ntlworld.com --> > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Janina Sajka" <janina at rednote.net> > To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> > Sent: Friday, August 05, 2005 3:50 PM > Subject: Re: FC3 for x86_64? > > > >Hi, Liz: > > > >Several of us are running Speakup Modified on x86_64 platforms, > >including yours truly.
