Open Source Linux Boot Software - Page 12

A triple boot solution for intel based macs.

This is a simple Python GUI that will allow you to turn off the PC automatically in the selected period of time. You can also cancel the previous turn offs.

This project aims to make such Open Source utilities by which one can shoot any problem with/without having technical knowledge/skills.Tuxguru's Rescue tablet resolves many problems including Passwords,Grub,Backup,Recovery,Partition,Installations,etc..

Two Kernel Monte is a Linux kernel module which allows Linux to load another kernel image into RAM and restart the machine from that kernel. The loader supports initial RAM disks and passing arbitrary kernel command line parameters to the new kernel.

Many complex storage environments running within GNL/Linux could benefit from increased disassembly and resource remediation during shutdown. Underdog an alternate /init to create a "late" user context to resume control during shutdown to park media and detach network devices. Currently there is a fully working initramfs (mkinitramfs/mkinitrd) replacement that is capable of building the early user context images both as separate files or built into the kernel image. The working proof of concept code for the alternate /init is too messy to sahre just now. /doh.

The User-space System Device Enumeration (uSDE) facility manages the devices attached to a computer system. It is responsible for creating, deleting and maintaining the devices and networking interfaces for the system that it is installed on.

Patched slackware installation boot/root disks to support the Vaio C1Vx USB floppy. Currently only Slack 8 is supported, with 8.1 coming soon.

ValDisk is a boot/root floppy set made for low-end machines (laptops) to be put to good use, such as for serial or network clients. It's goal is to run in as little as 4 MB of RAM, therefor it does not use a ramdisk.

vold is a Volume Daemon for Linux that can automatically mount CD-Roms, Harddrives, USB Flash Sticks, iPods etc. It is also possible to identify Partitions by UUID or volumename and mount them in a pre-defined Folder. Aims to replace mounting by hand!

WebSphere doesn't come with an init.d script to start it up when Linux boots; so I wrote one.

Webbsyte login is a program to interface with UNIX/Linux users to be able to login to their computer. There is currently a login program that is installed with UNIX, but we are going to build one with even bigger possibilities. Webbsyte Login will inte

Yard is a suite of Perl scripts for creating custom boot/rescue/Linux-on-a-floppy disks. You specify a basic set of files and utilities for inclusion and Yard handles the details, including checking for errors, omissions and inconsistencies.

ZorOS is a boot manager that hides/shows partitions at boot time and allows to boot up to 10 primary partitions per HD

a2webd created to facilitate launch a2web a lightweight Web User Interface for aria2 with remote control support for downloads

A minimal linux rescue distribution with the goals of being small, compatible and very usable. Features as a cozy shell and a multitude of partition rescue/editing tools all based on up-to-date releases like 2.4.x kernel with USB support etc.

Small program for enumerate all the PCI and USB devices in system, check if the device is supported by the kernel, automatically load necessary modules for this devices. Used in small embedded systems with less disk space and stripped kernel features.

autoswap is a tool (written in Perl) that allows for swap space to be created automatically based upon the amount of RAM in the machine or configuration. Useful for cluster configuration.

This small piece of software checks or sets BIOS settings of the Award BIOS from within a running operating system. This BIOS is commonly used by PC-Engines in their ALIX-boards, for example in the ALIX.3D3 (AMD-LX800). www.trilogik.de

bbiso is a shell script used to build a CD image for a bootable Linux system running entirely in RAM on a PC platform. An example file system image is provided. It is a rewrite and update of Philip Howard's bick-0.8.0 package.

biosconfig is a flexible tool to automate CMOS non-volatile store parameter modification.

a new kind of OS. just an experimental and limited system to test a new concept based of user centric view, but nothing is done because it's "normal" in all OSes , everything is thinked again. The aim is to manage information (represented as XML) wit

Blob is a boot loader for SA11x0 (StrongARM) platforms. Blob is able to boot a Linux kernel stored in flash or RAM and provide that kernel with a ramdisk (again from flash or RAM).

The bootd project allows netbooting a wide variety of clients using different protocols using one configuration and one server daemon, with good configurability and diagnostics.

Bootdisk lets you create boot and root disks for booting linux. These disks should permit rescue when normal boot is no more available. Bootdisk makes possible quick tests adjusting your set of utilities.

just like visudo, wrap the details of re-creating the /boot.scr file after editing it's source /boot.cmd . Packaged for Slackware ARM
