[arch64] arch64-0.7.2-(ftp/base/current).iso out

Following the WiKi ISO remstering guide I've made my first testing ISO image. It boots fine in qemu untill the point where you have to enter /arch/setup. I've had no time for real testing. So feel free to try if it really boots and can be used for installing Arch64. Watch all log messages and give feedback. I'll try to get it working as soon as possible. Then much more user should be able to install Arch64
There's only one thing that slows me down: my very slow upload of 128kb/s. The upload took me over 3 hours :?
133MB big. So here it is: http://arch64.org/packages/iso/arch-0.7 … 4-base.iso
Warning: This is no official release from ArchLinux. It's maybe even not what I should call a BETA. So don't claim me if your system we be totally broken.
Good luck!

the glibc package needs to be fixed before you can release the iso!!!!
it should be

  • Install Arch from 2007.05 "base" iso or the "current" iso?

    My old Arch install (0.7.2, upgraded in Nov. 06) may be broken, and I'm thinking of doing a fresh install of 2007.05.  For the old install, I'd followed the recommended procedure of installing just the base system from the CD iso image, then installed the xorg and kde metapackages via pacman and then built the system from there.
    At present, Arch offers a 2007.05-Duke.current iso of 550 MB that includes Xorg plus other things (but not KDE), on top of the base package.  What exactly is the virtue of this bigger iso over the base package iso (150 MB).  Why are the devs offering this bigger "current" iso, and is this the preferred way of installing Arch now?

    You could also take it one step further, and use the ftp iso (a mere 27MB for i686, 35MB for x86_64) - that basically provides the installer only, and downloads everything else from the repos. Of course, as with slackhack's "base + upgrade" suggestion, a decent net connection is essential for  an ftp install.

  • Hi apple, I have currently got a visa $50 gift card. I put it on my iTunes account I have currently ran out of funds on the card. Now even when I try to download free apps or even update, it says it requires a new credit card. Is there a way around this?

    Hi apple, I have currently got a visa $50 gift card. I put it on my iTunes account I have currently ran out of funds on the card. Now even when I try to download free apps or even update, it says it requires a new credit card. Is there a way around this

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    If you have a credit card on your account then it needs to be valid. Have you tried removing it from yoru account ? On your iPad try tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and selecting 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should give you a payments link on your account's page.

  • Login failed for user 'MgmtSvc-AdminAPI' because the account is currently locked out.

    We are getting the following error on our SMA web service machine in the mgmtsvc-adminapi log file.   Im guessing I could have also posted this in the WAP forum.     Any ideas on what would cause this?
    Also, we noticed the connection strings in the adminapi site are encrypted as well so not sure what the credentials are that WAP adminapi is using.

    Thanks Lance

    Just had this error happen again.   THis is the account that microsoft configured during the WAP portal install.   The connection strings in the web.config for the adminapi site is encrypted so you cant see the credentials.  
    The WAP install didnt create local computer user but does create SQL Auth user with the name of MgmtSvc-AdminAPI

  • HT201363 I forgot my passord code for my phone and I am current lock out, plus I have disabled my iphone

    I type in the incorrect passwrod for my iphone and now I am currently lock out. My phone is now disabled. What is the next step to take

    Follow these steps:

  • Can I disable the alert "the referenced account is currently locked out..."

    I posted the following on the answers site but was recommended to post here
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-security/can-i-disable-the-alert-the-referenced-account-is/0af4441c-2f70-4452-a876-7c582fbd6530
    A client has asked me to enable an account lockout threshold on their domain.
    I have made the appropriate changes in Group Policy and also configured an email notification under Task Scheduler that is triggered by Event ID 4740 appearing in the security log. http://community.spiceworks.com/scripts/show/1588-send-email-on-account-lock-out
    It was when testing this that I noted after the nth incorrect password, I received an on screen alert "the referenced account is currently locked out and cannot be logged on to"
    I tested again with an invalid username and did not get the same message. This is potentially a problem because it means that an attacker sees a difference between a valid username and an invalid username without being required to know any correct
    passwords.
    Is there any way that I can disable this on screen alert so that attackers are not presented with a means to validate usernames?
    I am already aware that account lockouts are no longer in favour for other reasons and have informed the client about the possibility of a denial of service attack that deliberately triggers these lockouts and taken certain steps to mitigate the
    effects.
    However, given that an informed decision has been made to stick with the account lockout policy I would like to be able to mitigate this other undesired consequence if at all possible.

    Hi Matt,
    I understand your concern, although I wasn’t able to find a way to disable or change these embedded Windows messages.
    With Account Lockout policy enabled, the risk that accounts being hacked has been reduced a lot. In addition, we can monitor security logs to determine whether hacking behaviors exist or not.
    More information for you:

  • Referenced Account is currently locked out

    Was setting up a new account on my laptop for my wife (luckily I did this. You'll see why in a minute.) and after I finished I took a shower. Came back to the box, typed in my credentials and I got the message "The referenced account is currently locked
    out and may not be logged on to". For the life of me I cannot figure out how this happened. I am able to log onto my wife's new account just fine but from her account I cannot figure out what is causing the issue. The native admin account is disabled
    along with the guest account. And no, I did not change the name of the native admin account, use it, and then disable it. My account is the first account created on the box with admin rights.
    Facts:
    -Any and all attempts to view Group Policies is met with an access is denied message as a standard user (didn't know I had that much security enabled, maybe it's by default?)
    -Any type of account management cannot be done as a standard user.
    -I poured over hundreds of logs but could not find anything out of the ordinary. I cannot access security logs as a standard user.
    -Default account lockout time is 30mins after 5 attempts, I've waited over 3 hours (I know this from memory)
    -I did not enter incorrect password attempts prior to the lockout. The very first attempt was met with the lockout message
    -My account password does not expire and neither does my wife's
    -I am using Win7 Ult-64 on an i7-3630QM 2.4, 8GB ram
    -A fresh install is not an option and neither is an NT password reset. I have encrypted files I cannot lose access to.
    -I am at my wits end.
    Mods, I apologize if this post is in the wrong spot.
    I need some assistance, I've boxed myself in and can't think my way out. Suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    Edit: I am able to access the Computer Management window under Admin tools in the CP. Local Users and Groups > Users, I can see all of the users and view their properties. As I mentioned before, Admin and Guest accounts are disabled. The properties on
    my account are:
    User cannot change password: NOT checked
    Password never expires: Checked
    Account is disabled: NOT checked
    Account is locked out: Checked
    Obviously any attempt to change as standard user is denied.

    Hi Kent,
    It's not urgent right now
    I can create new accounts and assign them but what i need to do after creating new account? For example, i will create an account which name is sccmadministrator2;
    Now i have 2 accounts in Primary Site 1
    sccmadministrator: soft. dist. account
    sccmadministrator2: client push installation
    Do i need to same thing in Primary Site 2???
    Is it OK?
    I don't think so, i already 1 account in Primary Site 1 and there is no problem but after activating primary 2 it was getting error "the referenced account is......."
    then i created an account assign it for soft dist. and client push in Primary Site 2...
    Now; Per site 1 network Access account but the same error..........

  • FTP Publishing currently failing

    Some months back I created a website for a friend who wanted a new site for his business. His site was already with Mr. Site who supported FTP publishing, so I created his new site and transferred it to his new one, effectively replacing it. Great! Worked like a dream! By all means take a look!
    http://www.nickmarshallmake-up.com
    About two weeks ago I attempted to update the new site and the update has failed. When publishing the site, iWeb "Prepares the Files for Publishing" and always crashes on the last page (no matter what the last page is, as I rearranged them to test it out). iWeb didn't even get to the stage where it uploaded anything to the website. I looked at the website online and noticed that there are now some media crashes present (music shortened and artwork is suddenly missing and cropped) and I'm enraged that I cannot actually effect any changes.
    I can publish the site to a local folder with no problem whatsoever, but iWeb ALWAYS crashes when preparing files for publishing via the FTP protocols!
    Help please?

    This doesn't help you but I am experiencing exactly the same issue, using FTP publishing.

  • FTP Uploading not working out of nowhere?

    Hello to All,
    I use Yummy FTP for my FTP needs, and have been very happy with it for some time now.  I develop websites and then use my Yummy to FTP the site files up to its respective server.  However out of NOWHERE, im getting an "Access Denied" error.  And this error isnt coming from the host, as i can log into any of my clients different hosts and download, or manipulate things on the hosts end, but if I try to UPLOAD any kind of file (its not a folder permissions deal, i checked and moved these to different directories and everything) i get "Access Denied" from my iMac.  This has never happened befpre, and I cant think of anything that would have changed, set aside an update from Apple.  Firewall is off, no other strange security features are on that I can see, please help, this is hurting my soul at this point lol.
    thanks in advance
    Tristan

    Hello Jason,
    I hope you don't mind but I'd like to keep this discussion here in case any future Mac users have a similar issue they can see your consultation with me here on this post.
    While I may have phrased my issue a little awkwardly, and my love for Yummy (yes I'm a big fan) is great, I didn't mean to insinuate that the problem was on the Yummy side, hence why I posted here and didn't contact you directly.
    My problem was I'd get an Access Denied message, only upon upload, on MULTIPLE hosts, different servers.  I'd attempt to FTP and upload to about 5 different servers and would get the same denied message.  There was a really bad storm here which knocked out the power, and it appeared to me that maybe some setting on my Mac was changed upon an update that ran as I restarted. 
    Then out of nowhere, everything worked fine.  I have no closure as to what was causing this, but it couldn't be on five different servers, I am starting to wonder if it could have been a problem with my ISP, as I use a cable modem and the cable was out after the storm, and was on downstream only for a bit.  But everything was else was fine at the time of the problem. 
    I stuck with Yummy, and didn't panic and download cyber duck or FileZilla, as I was absolutely certain the problem didn't rest with Yummy. 
    so I want to clarify to the public that when I stated "a connectivity problem with Yummy". I meant that it was either my host or my own ISP and unfortunately Yummy was in the middle.
    Thank You so much for your input, from one OSX developer to the next.

  • My regular FTP site suddenly times out - after onl...

    Hi
    Not sure if this is the right forum but due to some problems I found myself unable to pay the monthly bill by the due date. After some time going round in circles with the famous auomated menus I managed to find a real person and explained the problem. I asked if I ould have until 19th February to pay. They said the latest they could allow was 14 February UNLESS I was able to  to pay £20 - £30 towards total of £51  before that.
    I managed to borrow £20 which I paid online and I was still connected on the 14th and today too BUT my website FTP which I access daily has suddenly stopped connecting giving me a time out message. No one else using it has experienced any problem.
    So I was wondering whether it was possible that BT have decided to block my access to this IP of this FTP site until the balance of the bill is paid. I have no evidence of this except the co-incidence that the last day they would originally give me to settle the bill coincides with the sudden inability to connect to my FTP site. (I can connect to other FTP sites that I use occasionally with different IP's with no problem.)
    Any suggestions appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Shadowmike,
    I don't think this issue has anything to do with BT billing restrictions. When your broadband is restricted due to payment issues you can not access any sites and you get redirected to a BT.com payment page.

  • Airport Extreme Base signal knocked out by Linksys LinkExtender

    After installing a new AE Base and configuring it, all the computers in the house connect fine with a strong signal, but when the Linksys Link Extender is plugged in to enable a computer in an adjacent building to get a stronger signal, the AE Base signal gets weaker, another network shows up (on AirTrafficControl) and some older Apple computers are dropped off the internet.
    Is there some configuring that needs to be done to the Extender so it will not do this, or is there a better way to connect an older PC to this airport system?
    Many thanks,
    ...Tom

    (Extreme BS is early model two ethernet conns, I think renamed snow)
    No. The dual Ethernet (aka snow) 802.11b AirPort base station (ABS) is completely different than a round 802.11b/g AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).

  • AirPort Express Base Station sticks out too far (Solution)

    Hi all,
    I don't know if this comes up very often in this forum but a problem with having the Airport Express Base Station plug directly into the wall is that it sticks out too far, IMO.
    I have one hooked up in my bedroom so I can play music over a BOSE Wave Radio. I have two possible power outlets to plug it into. One is next to the bed. There is about 18 inch gap between the bed and the wall. I don't want the device there because I may bump into it while making up the bed. The other place is behind the dresser. However, this spot would make me have to pull out the dresser a little too far from the wall than I would like. Behind the dresser is preferred because it is the closest outlet to the radio.
    Solution: I went to a local hardware store and found a six socket mini power strip that plugs directly into the wall. Here in the US, our power outlets have two sockets lined up vertically. This device plugs into both sockets. The top plug has all three prongs. The bottom one only has one ground prong. Each side has three 3-hole sockets. The sockets on one side are upside down.
    With this mini power strip, I can plug the Airport Express Base Station into the side of the strip such that the side of the base station is almost against the wall. Now, I can have my dresser very close to the wall. There is a very small gap between the base station and the wall and dresser to allow it to breathe.
    I also plan on using more of the these mini power strips behind other pieces of furniture so that the furniture no longer pushes against power cords sticking out of other outlets. The one downside is that this mini power strip won't handle wide transformer based adapters.
    I hope this tip helps others.
    Enjoy life!
    Steven
