<br>Plug a USB drive into the schoolserver and, depending on the motherboard, you might hear a series of system beeps as it mounts.<br><br>Type mount to see where it is. Mine looks like this:<br><br>/dev/sdc1 on /media/usb0 type vfat (rw,noexec,nodev,sync,noatime)<br>
<br>Now you can redirect standard output to text files on the usb drive.<br><br>[root@schoolserver ~]# lspci > /media/usb0/lspci.txt<br>[root@schoolserver ~]# ifconfig -a > /media/usb0/ifconfig.txt<br>[root@schoolserver ~]# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules > /media/usb0/udev.txt<br>
<br>It doesn't matter what you name them, just be descriptive. And if you're going to take them to a Windows machine, I'd put .txt as a file extension.<br><br>Unmount the usb drive.<br><br>umount /media/usb0<br>
<br>Now you can take that usb drive to your regular computer and copy and paste the contents of those text files in an email for us.<br><br>Anna Schoolfield<br>Birmingham <br></div></div><br>
