Setup Manual for SysAdmin

Mar 2, 2001

Insert the CD into a PC, and boot.  (There is a bit of debugging
output that appears.  I want it to be there for a while.)  In a short
while, you will be asked to give various IP numbers, etc.

You will then see the ";" prompt that I used for /bin/busybox crippled
shell.  There is a little glitch; Until this is solved, press
control-D to terminate the /etc/rc.sysinit that is now running.  You
know have a /bin/busybox shell on tty3 and /bin/bash shell on tty2.
The firewall is now in effect.  You can switch (Alt-F2 or Alt-F3) into
one of these shells, and poke around.  We will get rid off these
shells when all is well.

I am trying to mount the CDs in this order:

mount -t iso9660 dev/hdc /mnt
mount -t iso9660 dev/hdb /mnt
mount -t iso9660 dev/hda /mnt
mount -t iso9660 dev/hdd /mnt

I am also trying to find the NICs installed by

insmod /lib/modules/8139too.o
insmod /lib/modules/3c59x.o	
insmod /lib/modules/eepro100.o	
insmod /lib/modules/pcnet32.o	
insmod /lib/modules/3c509.o	

The 3c59x module is for:

"Vortex"    (Fast EtherLink 3c590/3c592/3c595/3c597) EISA and PCI
"Boomerang" (EtherLink XL 3c900 or 3c905)            PCI
"Cyclone"   (3c540/3c900/3c905/3c980/3c575/3c656)    PCI and Cardbus
"Tornado"   (3c905)                                  PCI
"Hurricane" (3c555/3cSOHO)                           PCI

Please modify the files in /sysadmin to reflect your IP addresses,
etc.  During boot, we cp these files overwriting /etc/rc.* files.
After this update, the rc.* files are sourced by /bin/bash so that you
get the configuration that you set up.

When you modify the above files, you must re-burn a new CD.  This is
best done in Linux.  Mount the current CD, and prepare a new .iso file
with the new /sysadmin/* files.  Use the /dev/loop device, mkisofs,
and cdrecord.

For use during development, I am loading a number of utilities that
are not needed when the FireWall is in production use.  In fact, we
can nearly /bin/rm -fr /bin /etc ...  Currently, I set the ramdisk to
be 8 MB.
