#################################################################################
Sorry for the delay instead of a iso, I have made a script file that will download and configure a DSLinux-COD2 server. This way we do not have to eat up our bandwidth, dishing out a 54meg iso, and that of the original creators get there just praise for creating such wonderful things (Linux COD Server Files). It is not pretty and I am sure anyone else could have done a better job. ANYONE wanting this script can email me, you will need to give me an address where you can get a 3-4k attachment. The email script is polished, well more thought into polishing it anyway.

The script assumes the following:
YOU WILL NOT GET MAD IF IT TOASTS YOUR CURRENT INSTALL OF DSL, BREAKS YOUR MACHINE OR WHATEVER.
You HAVE INSTALLED to a NON-Frugal install to a harddrive of at least 9 gigs in size.
You have a configured connection to the internet.
And that you have the dvd version of COD2.
Your machine is at least a P2 550mhz w/512 megs of ram. (faster the better)

What it does is...
Download the files needed from the internet.
unpacks them into the cod2 directory.
Sets paths.
Copys the DVD to the /cod2/main directory.
Builds a basic server config file.
Starts the server.

######################To edit config files######################
/cod2/main/server01.cfg open in a text file editor to change startup rules.

To start the server after it has been shutdown, cd to the /cod2 directory and then type: "./cod2_lnxded +exec server01.cfg +map_rotate" and it will start up

To manage your server from a Windows machine google for "rcon4cod2" download & install it.
#######################################
You can also copy the following text into beaver as a bash script and then save to your local drive. You need to run it as root.

#!/bin/bash

Has anyone else made this work?

It is also possible to run the Cod2 server without installing from a DVD. And running it all from a large amount of memory about 150 megs on this machine (550mhz/512megs ram)

OK, you've now crossed over into the realm of super nerds, whereby even regular nerds steal your lunch money and throw rocks at you.

You soooo freeking rock man....

I gotta question...if the gcc files are already ready to go...you "COULD" run this from a frugal install man!

what I'm saying is that it needs those pre-compiled binaries, and it gets them for you...

So in effect you could with say a 10-20 gig HD do a frugal...let me explain:

1.  /hda1 = 60 Meg partition for frugal image
2.  /hda2 = 128Meg or whatever size swapfile (you will still need one
3.  /hda3 = The rest of the drive formatted either in ext2 or reiserfs with a persistant (/home /opt) directory built there

Then just modify the script to point to /home/dsl/cod2 instead of  just a /cod2 directory

This would allow for a static install..without having to do a full bore complete HD install, and the install itself would be a bit more resiliant in the case of a power fail as the "DSL" os is still in its unmodified image format (and it saves you about 100-150Megs of HD space)

or is that taking it too far??
