[orbit-user] New User: Need help

[puneet pandey]

First of all thanks for the help.

a)It appears to me that if i want to use nodeHandler to run the ruby scripts
which have my experiment description, than i should have nodeAgent 4 on all
my nodes. Is that true?
b)I had a look at the list of supportd images on
http://www.orbit-lab.org/wiki/Documentation/SupportedImages
Does all these have nodeAgent4 installed on them or only the ones against
which nodeAgent4 is mentioned in the Extras column. I just want to confirm.
c)How do i install Fedora 5 on my node? I read in the tutorial that custom
OS can be installed but could not figure out how.
And after installing Fedora how do i install nodeAgent4 on it.
After installing anything when i save the image using saveNode [x,y] where
does it get saved. How do i retrieve it to use it next time.

Can anyone help me with these

Thanks Puneet
