Finding K4Pacific, Static IP Addresses

[reldnahkram]

I'm in the middle of reinstalling Linux on both of my computers (Consolidation has just gone from Hoary to Feisty, so it was a clean install and everything needs redoing), so expect a flurry of Linux posts here, so I remember how to do everything next time this happens.

Accessing k4pacific is difficult because it's an LVM, which causes problems.

Install lvm2.
Reboot.
sudo vgchange -an VolGroup00
sudo vgchange -ay VolGroup00
sudo mount /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /k4pacific
add the following line to /etc/fstab:
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /k4pacific ext3 defaults 00 (note all spaces are tabs)

For static IP

edit /etc/network/interfaces:

iface eth0 inet staic
address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.2.1
auto eth0

Then run

sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
