[monoestable]

Hi, I have an IBM X3250 appliance server with the damaged hard drive which was replaced, I installed Mandrake Linux operating system but can not install the application for the system to work as a OXE; anyone can help me? thanks

how did you install Linux Mandrake?

The PC Installer tool should install everything for you.

You installed Mandrake??? like from Mandrake CD's??

Excuse me, now confirmed, the operating system is "Red Hat Linux 4.0 Enterprise Server U5" reference to the cd Alcatel is 3bh11727bc already installed on linux but I do not know how to install call handling because I do not know where to send the command "grubboot ETHER" as in the normal procedures. Thanks

sorry monoestable but you did not answer the question we posed specifically...

Exactly how did you get Linux on the appliance server?

Did you...

A) Load Linux manually using Linux OS installation procedure
or
B) Load it using the Alcatel-Lucent PC Installer application

Your response A) or B) will tell us enough to reply to you with specific help

B

B

OK, well in that case the Linux and Call Handling go on at the same time! You cannot separate the 2!!!

A)What did you choose from the "Installation Type" drop down menu?
B)What architecture did you choose from the call server drop down list? Alize, A4400, Appliance Server or Blade Server?
C)What do you get when you boot the server?

Thanks for your attention,

A. the "Installation Type" is "standar installation"
B. the architecture is "appliance server"
C. I do not know how to make the appliance server boot from the ethernet and can start loading the software,
