Well I have a new 5.0rc12 server up and going, and installed unMENU par these instructions:

 

After reading what I just wrote, I thought perhaps I'd expand on UnMenu ... I know I said it's "very simple", but thinking back a bit I'm not sure I thought that when I first installed it 

 

The process is as follows:

 

(1) Copy the "unmenu_install" file to an "Unmenu" folder on the UnRAID flash drive

 

(2) Log into the server (either via console or telnet), and run these commands:

 

cd /boot/unmenu

unmenu_install -i -d /boot/unmenu

 

(3) To run it, just do this:

 

cd /boot/unmenu

./uu

 

To set UnMenu to auto-run on every boot, just copy the file "unmenu.auto_install"  to the "packages" folder.

 

So unmenu IS installed and working, IF I start it manually. Here's my problem: I CANNOT find the file "unmenu.auto_install" anywheres in order to copy it    So that it auto runs on boot.

 

here's the unmenu folder it's supposed to be in in order to copy and move to the "packages" folder. (And no, it's not already in the packages folder)

 

 

 

Arrrg. any ideas on WTF?

 

Thx

Just add

 

/boot/unmenu/uu

 

to your go script.

Just add

 

/boot/unmenu/uu

 

to your go script.

Or, once you've set any package to auto_install on reboot a line is added to the end of your config/go script that will invoke all the whatever.auto_install files in /boot/packages

 

Type this command to create your own unmenu.auto_install

echo "/boot/unmenu/uu" >/boot/packages/unmenu.auto_install

 

It is not part of the unMENU distribution.  For it to be invoked you must set at least one package to be re-installed on reboot in the unMENU package manager.  I suggest installing the clean-powerdown and setting it to be re-installed on reboot.  The "image_server" is another package I suggest you install and set to re-install on reboot.
