How To Install Chillispot On Fedora
I am currently running Fedora and would like to dual boot Fedora with Ubuntu. I do not want to replace Fedora, I would like to keep it as my main OS. However, when using the Ubuntu installer I only get the options to either: 'Replace Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug) with Ubuntu' or 'Something else'.
Is there a way I can install Ubuntu alongside Fedora without deleting it? If so, as I would like Fedora to be my main OS, is there also a way to make it the top Grub option? I have tried partitioning with Gparted, however I can't split the Fedora partition. It says it is all used, however I have only used about 100GB/500GB. I am trying to install Ubuntu 13.10 using a live USB stick. I will upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 when I install it, but don't want to make a new Ubuntu live USB.

I don't think that Ubuntu (automate) installer is able to detect and configure Logical Volume Manager setup. So, you have to use either Gparted or the lvm tools (e.g. From inside Fedora, or Ubuntu Live CD) in order to shrink the partition and leave some space for Ubuntu and then use the 'something else' option to install Ubuntu. Of course Ubuntu can be installed in a logical partition and if Gparted don't allow you to shrink the partition (because it is 'used' as you said) this could be because of the swap partition that automatically mounted even if you boot from a Live image. So, (assumed that you use the Gparted from Ubuntu Live CD). Boot from the LiveCD/USB and click on 'Try Ubuntu'.
Before we proceed to the installation, its very important to know how the ChilliSpot works. A little background about ChilliSpot As of mid 2007, ChilliSpot appears to be dead. The developer Jens Jacobsen had vanished, and the chillispot.org domain lapsed, but chillispot.info is a copy (with ads inserted) of the original site. How to Install Fedora. Fedora is the second most popular Linux-based operating system, behind Ubuntu.This set of.
Open Gparted, then right click on swap partition and swapoff. Shrink the biggest partition(right click and resize) and leave some space for Ubuntu. Create a new logical partition. Close Gparted and begin the installation. Click on 'something else' and there you must see the new created partition. Click there and then click on 'Change' in order to use the partition (create an ext4 filesytem and mount it on root /). About the second part of your question: If so, as I would like Fedora to be my main OS, is there also a way to make it the top Grub option?
After the installation finish (with no errors), Ubuntu Grub will replace Fedora Grub in Disk's MBR. And so, you will have Ubuntu as main OS in Grub list. In order to replace Ubuntu Grub with Fedora Grub again, you must boot on Fedora and give the following command sudo grub2-install -recheck /dev/sda Above command will reinstall Fedora Grub in Disk's MBR, so everything will back to 'normal' (I mean as you already have it, with Fedora as fist OS in Grub list.etc). (at the moment, I'm not able to add a tutorial-like answer here, with pictures.etc.

Hello, Long story short I am trying to set up chillispot+mysql+freeradius to direct all within a certain network to a captive portal which will accept and store whatever user/password combination they provide. There would idealy be a list somewhere so I can print out the results at the end of the day. I've not been seeing an easy way to do this and I'm not familer with radius or chillispot.
I have used some mysql. I did not know if there was some setting within freeradius that I could change to enable this functionality or if I should be looking somewhere else. If anyone knows or can steer me in the right direction it would be wonderful. So far I am thinking that I might have to look at how authentication works and custom write a cgi script that will store the username/password combo in a file. Then just allow them to go on. I dont even know if chillispot would support this. Anyways once again any help would be wonderful as I am at a bit of a loss right now Thanks, Jorvic.
The idea is that there are no set username and passwords. Pa programs in california. The user would ideally type a number for thier login name and the password would be their last name. Policy here for some reason wants them to not deny people with wrong credentials from having access to the internet but we would like to have a list to try to match up to people.
What I'm thinking right now is too create one login and password which is hidden and submits on the page each time. They will see a login and password form which will just store that information to a file when they hit submit.
