Alcatel Unleashed

Well, You still need Piped proxy to do the initial installation of the Call Server.

I am running VM Ware Server Console Ver. 1.0.4 build-56528

Once the CPU has booted up (You don't have to start RUNTEL) do the following:

Login as root (su) and use a text editor like "vi"
Modify the following files: menu.lst & inittab

[root@xa001001 mtcl]# vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
[root@xa001001 mtcl]# vi /etc/inittab

{ Using "vi" editor:
- Use Enter to scroll down
- "space" to move sideways
- "i" to start edit on text
- "esc" key to stop edit
- Shift-Q to enter "save/exit" mode
in "save/exit" mode - "w" to wright/save
- "q" to quit }


To look like these Egsamples:

There's a much easier way to do this! Install OXE as a blade server!

WOW! That is much easier. Thanks

Yes ! Blade server work withou piped proxy

But, for frenchies you would like having an "azerty" keyboard.

Use this command:
loadkeys fr
