The 20030517 release is now ready, and can be found at the following URLs:
http://udpcast.linux.lu/20030517
Here a small summary of the changes of udpcast itself:
- min-clients/min-wait/max-wait/nokbd flags for unattended sender operation
- fix for "press any key" (it's now really any key, not just return)
- keyboard start also works when getting data file from stdin (by
opening /dev/tty) (unless --nokbd is specified, of course...)
- misc bugfixes (robustness against bad packets, ...)
And here are the changes for the boot loader:
- it's no longer based on the SuSE boot disks. This should make it
easyer to compile for those of you who don't have access to a SuSE
system.
- The new system also makes it easyer to upgrade to new kernels.
- There is now a boot image maker, which makes it easyer to build
boot floppies with exactly those network modules that you need
- Single floppy boot for most network cards
- autodetection of PCI network cards
- Support for PXE and Etherboot
After a bit of testing I'll move it to the main page.
Regards,
Alain
