Hi All,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First time poster, been watching for who knows how ever
long.. Just curious if there is any known command or switch or
modification that can be done to prevent the CD from being
ejected after completion of the OS installation. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I work with servers and although 95% is now virtual and I
don't need to worry about physical media, there are a few
servers that are still dedicated and therefore it would be handy
to leave the CD in the drive when I finish installing Ubuntu
Remotely through iDRAC or iLO etc. (Remote Server System
Management). That way if things fails it can be redone without
having to go back to the data centre and push the CD back into
the drive. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Any thoughts appreciated.<br>

Hi Matthew,<br>
<br>
No one has suggested anything on this so far, so i figured i'd throw
you a suggestion: don't use physical media. Set up a PXE boot
server and load your ISO images from PXE rather than physical CDs.
You can usually control all that via the integrated management card.<br>
<br>
There may be an easy way to do what you want (and i'm certain it can
be done by rebuilding the ISO image without the ejection code), but
it's probably going to help in other ways to have a PXE server
anyway.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Paul<br>
