[Planetlab-devel] MyPLC 0.4 Release Candidate 3 (myplc-devel-0.5-2.planetlab.i386.rpm)

[Renault John]

Hi Mark,

I have done the setup of one developer box which follows all  
requirement available in your tutorial. The first version I had tried  
was RC2 which failed to start just like Kevin reported. Lately, I  
have tried the RC3 which was available on your FTP but not advertised  
in this mailing list. The installation of the resulting MyPLC package  
went fine except for the DNS server, but I already had a DNS server  
on the machine I have installed MyPLC.
I was able to create a PLC, a slice and a node and finally to log  
into that node.

The only nano issue I had was that the link to download the custom CD  
is not anymore available in the download page under the Software  
section on the PLC web site.

I take the opportunity of that mail to ask you a very practical  
question. I had to modify the Bootmanager and I already have a  
compiled MyPLC package. Obviously, I have to rebuild the boot manager  
package (package=bootmanager) and somehow integrate the new package  
into the MyPLC RPM package. Is there a quick  way to do that? For the  
moment, I clean the MyPLC package and rebuild it but it takes  
forever, as you can expect.

Cheers,
Renault
