Re: LinuxCoin A lightweight Debian based OS with everything ready to go.
You could setup a nfs and mount that apon boot or send everything via ssh after booting ? I am looking into this but doing this properly is going to be a big job. I was thinking of some sort of watchdog that sends the files and starts up mining on the nodes once the server detects a reboot.
Ops you've upgraded to the latest kernel aswell
I forgot about them being in there. I'll fix that up tomorrow. Hold on two secs I'll upload some files for you to replace.
EDIT:
Go over and download the initrd and vmlinuz files here And replace the ones located in /live on your usb stick. next time you boot you will have full functionality again.
Nope, that didn't work. USB Keyboard and mouse still not seen.

What version are you running ? It sounds like you've managed to upgrade your kernel from somewhere. when I tried the following steps on 0.2.1b I had no problems which is strange.
If you boot without persistence then mount your persistence space. If your using a persistent file this will be located in /live/image. so you can mount like so.
Then copy your boot files across.
And reboot. If this works post back and I'll give you the rest of the instructions on how to upgrade to the latest kernel.
Sorry to bump my thread but thought this was worth bumping !! 
LinuxCoin now has it's own debian repository. Now you can update your system without re downloading your ISO !! For now if you are running prefinal you can do the following.
and paste the following into that file
Save that file and continue with the following steps.
Did the above today -- took about 30 minutes to download, unpack and install it all. However, when I booted the updated, upgraded 0.2-final it got all the way to the final desktop and seemed to be running (I inserted another USB flash drive and the filemanager popped up) but my keyboard and mouse weren't seen. :-/ LinuxCoin now has it's own debian repository.
