This file? http://twisted.bluecherry.net/zm/files/filtersave.php

It's a php file so the server is trying to execute it as such. try 'wget http://twisted.bluecherry.net/zm/files/filtersave.php' and then moving it into the appropriate directory.

Thanks

Here you go, download this and move it to the correct folder. Delete the old or back it up, then run "tar xfvz filtersave.tgz" or something to that effect.



The file size is correct according to earlier suggestions.

That is strange but i do remember having this happen to me once with dapper. Pretty sure the fix was just typing some garbage and hit enter then things began to work. give a try type some random think in and hit enter

Are you trying in a virtual machine or booting off the ISO? Could be a bad CD...bad CDROM or flaky hardware. See if it works in a virtual machine

Did you test on a virtual machine?

Try running the memory tester on the menu of the Live CD

Well it is booting when using virtual box. So cds are flaky. But the same RW cds are good when I used to write the ZMLarch iso and boot. Anyway, now I have another query. How do I configure the LiveCD to always store the image information (images, videos etc captured by motion detection etc) to the hard disk. My idea is that the HDD should be used only for the storage. Whereas the LiveCD only for booting.. That way I can set up a system to boot from the livecd and even when there is power failure and resumption, the Linux shall boot from CD. And the hdd shall hold the motion images. This way i get the best of both worlds. The os never gets corrupt with bad shutdowns and restarts. The images / videos will not be lost.
I know this shall involve remastering. but i need some guidance.

Suri,

Now that I have got most of the work done on my dvd, I can whip you up a custom build of the Live Cd that is set according to any setting you want. I can also add in features like cambozola, patches, SVN versions, whatever you want. I would need the exact information on want you want and any other custom settings you want.

or

I could get it all online and then you could also tweak the control panel as you desire and then I will wrap it up into the Xubuntu Live cd. Time is money and I can't do it for free so come up with what it is worth. Otherwise wait till Curtis get's back with you but I doubt he has the time to whip up custom builds for indiviudal people.

This offer goes for anyone, if you want a live cd build designed specific for your needs, just send me a pm.

installation issues

Post by tnolen »

I'm having trouble installing the LiveCD to a harddrive. I burned three disks with the ISO and all three stop during the install. When I verify the disks from the boot menu, I find that 2 files have errors(which files is not specified). I downloaded a second ISO and mounted it to a virtual machine (to avoid the possibility of errors in the burning process) and get the same result.

Any suggestions?
