What is..."Kseti"...?

kilowatt made a linux distro on a floppy that runs the dnet client, klinux. kseti would be a linux floppy with the seti client on there. problem is the seti client is too large and requires too many files saved to have as many NIC drivers as would be wanted. so nega seti rack.
 
Klinux and Kseti are all for crack racks.

Kseti should be very possible to do on a CD though. You could also probably do it pretty easily on 2 floppies, I think Poof knows someone that does that.

Also, it's possible to make a crack rack that boots off a central server hard drive and run SETI that way. 🙂
 
Considering how cheap CD-roms are nowadays (can easily be found for < 20 bucks), it makes sense (to me) to start putting 'dem things on CDs....
 
I think Kilowatt was talking about making some kind of &quot;kseti&quot; but haven't heard about much progress. There is a problem getting all the needed files to fit on a floppy.
I don't know if he has thought about this (he is probably way beyond this) but what about having the files be in some kind of executable compressed archive, boot from the floppy, create a ramdisk and decompress the seti files to it and run from there?
Kilowatt - if you are listening - is this feasable?
 
Floppy distros are out, CD images are in.

I've not given up on running Seti from a small Linux disro, but I have scraped tring to put it all on a single floppy.

My biggest problem is finding the time to mess with it.
