I have some remote work over a painfully slow link if using graphics. To accomplish what I need to do, a dd of a file that resides on a CIFS share onto a USB key of a server, I was thinking of booting the machine with an F11 Live CD so I could do this all in one hit. So, does the live cd have support for CIFS mounts and an ssh server so I could only deal with getting the thing started, then dump the graphical remote logon and just use ssh? Better yet, can I interrupt grub and pass a "3" to prevent the disc from even loading X? I would try, but the connection is so slow, it would take ages to try if it didn't work and my maint window is short unless I wanna be up all night, I can't have it off for long :) Thanks guys! jlc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
