RH9 ISO to LTSP ISOs in a few simple lines

From K12LTSP Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Here's a quick rsync how-to using Jim's example--using rsync to update RH9 to [[1]]:

1. Change to your working directory: 

cd /path/to/your/RH9/ISO's

2. Rename your [[|http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/iso/i386/ RedHat 9 ISO]] image files: 

mv shrike-i386-disc1.iso K12LTSP-3.1.0-disc1.iso
mv shrike-i386-disc2.iso K12LTSP-3.1.0-disc2.iso
mv shrike-i386-disc3.iso K12LTSP-3.1.0-disc3.iso

3. Run the command (all one line including the "."): 

rsync -avP k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us::K12LTSP-mirror/K12LTSP-3.1.0-disc?.iso  .

4. Wait... but not nearly as long as a regular ftp transfer==== ;-) ====

5. Run "md5sum *" and compare to the [listing|]...

Done==== You have your new set of K12LTSP ISO's... ====
