Install Windows XP on 33 Laptops Dell Latitude E6400 CloneZilla

[stephmc111]

i can do that, its easy =P

[sal123456ify]

How you do that?

[shafnet]

You Sir are full of win... love the basement office too.

Couple of things. iftop / iptraf instead of reading proc net... Issue magic packets via a multi-threaded script which should be more instantaneous than issuing -f.

Now how do you deliver the image over the network ? 500MB/min ~ 60MB/s == 60 x 33 x 8 = 16gbps :o

[yoshi314]

i hope i accumulate enough old computers one day to try this out.

[shsn25]

Very cool indeed. Got a few questions to ask you, if you don't mind answering :)

1. which linux distro did you use for CZ server?

2. what is the name of application used to measure throughput or network activity? (the one with graph and and the one with 'xxx-ng' that showed interface activity).

Cheers!

[0100011101001101]

@shsn25

ad.1 It was Debian (if I good remeber 3.1 sarge)

ad.2 bwm-ng [Bandwidth Monitor NG] (showed interface activity); speedometer (graphs)

The fun part is entering in all those product keys.

@kc2jga

Product key was delivered by unattend.xml :) (MOLP - Microsoft Open License Pack)

[DellPrecisionM60]

I remember this, I was the admin for one of these and we would do 12 computers at one using PXE...the fun times. I do wonder though, are you using Gigabit or 100 Mb/s? We were limited to 100 Mb/s per the speed of our switch :(

[0100011101001101]

@DellPrecisionM60

Connection between server and switch was 1000Mb/s but notebooks were connected to 100Mb/s ports only

[samhuang1999]

there is always one laptop that lags, 0:56 =D

and thumbs up if you saw that odd poster on the wall at 1:00

[ajhare2]

can you give me one of those laptops

[joaorstm]

Pity seeing Free Software being used to disseminate Windows like that.

[chrisbmilton]

That switch Hates you! LOL Sooo much work!

[lilchopin1]

rise my glorious creations.

[0100011101001101]

@cyberlord64

For good Clonezilla SE tutorial please type in google: clonezilla debian howtoforge

[fernarenas]

Hi, where I can find a very ggo tutorial for the clonezillaserver? I've found lots of them but noone explains detailed how to do it, they just replys what they have done to acomplish their own clonning process.

My friend works for a school board and he just imaged 300 dell netbooks 20 at a time using symantec ghost, same idea as clonezilla :D

Disk cloning ftw

[timesegment]

hey if youre going to buy dell E6400 buy the intel graphics chip one NOT NVIDIA - NVIDIA chip sucks

[SUKItm]

Does this CloneZilla use broadcast packets or bittorrent-like technology to reduce the load on the server with the images? Because, each machine was pulling ~600mb/minute (10mb/sec), while the output of the server seemed to only be, at best, 24mbytes/second?

I guess I've sort of answered my own question, eh?

[YellingSilently]

@SUKItm not broadcast, but multicast is indeed supported.

[tttekev]

@SUKItm The Server was multicasting the image. Meaning that the data from the server was being replicated and given to each machine at the same time.

[EminoMeneko]

Hello 18253.

At the end of my studies I had that project. :)

Clonezilla is just awesome.

[timesegment]

[THEREALMXLgodiamgod]

[poppinoncrackvideos]

[techkra]

@poppinoncrackvideos haha, agreed. before hand, i was like, how hard would it be to install windows xp one-by-one on every single computer in our school. that'd be fucked. now i see! ;)

[delliswierd]

@poppinoncrackvideos haha same lol we were supposed to have windows 7 but the teachers wanted xp cause they werent familiar with 7

[daniow1234]

Mam nadzieje, że to nie oznaka przepotwarzania w boota? :)
