I have Vista Business in one of my machines and thought of dual booting with Windows Server 2008. And the end result? - Excellent! I installed Windows Server on top of Vista and after installation of Windows Server 2008, the boot menu was shown with options to boot into Vista or Server 2008
Cool
Happy Birthday Windows Vista!
It's actually yesterday, but nobody seemed to have actually celebrated the one year anniversary of Microsoft's latest OS.
"It's been a year already?"
Yep.
How were your thoughts on Vista over this past year? What do you want to make happen on Vista over the next year? What about the 'Wow' that they said that would start?
Your opinions everyone!
For late viewers, here are some of the marketing I still got in my drawer:
I love this one. Especially the view.
Microsoft offers to buy Yahoo for US$44.6 billion
Microsoft shores up its position against Google with massive deal
Microsoft releases Windows Server 2008 to manufacturing
The path to Windows Server 2008 has not always been a straight line
Opinion: Dancing portal partnership polka
Microsoft's bid for Yahoo makes a mockery of Australasian portal strategies
Analysis: Microsoft could stumble in quest for ad speed
Merger challenges could undo the benefits of the deal
How to Upgrade iPod Touch To Jailbroken 1.1.3
Hot off the heals of upgrading my 1.1.2 Jailbroken iPod Touch to 1.1.3, I thought I'd post a how to and some of my observations.
DRM Music files work.
Jiggling icon reorder works
Maps, Mail etc work. Positioning should work.
Your music and videos will stay, but you will lose all your old apps that are in /Applications. If they are in /Var/Applications they are safe.
Summerboard isn't compatible with 1.1.3 yet.
SSH access works.
How to:
Note: Turn SSH on before doing this, if it gets stuck in restore mode, use iNdependence to sort it out.
I did this using the new iJailbreakme method.
1. If you are running 1.1.1, upgrade to 1.1.2 using the okto prep method. Using 1.1.1 with this method causes DRM and other problems.
2. Install the latest versions of BSDsubsystem and Installer
3. Add 'http://ijailbreak.com/repo.plist' as a source in Installer (sources -> edit -> add)
4. Back up anything that you want to keep. This could easily go wrong and require a restore.
5. In installer there should now be a 'iJailBreakMobile' category, from that install 'iJailBreakMobile 1.1.2'. This will put a new icon on your springboard.
6. Set the iPod auto lock to NEVER.
7. Run 'iJailBreak' from your springboard. This will take some time, it downloads the entire iPod 1.1.3 update from Apple.
8. When it finishes, it should either reboot on its own, leave you with a spinning cog, or say process completed. If you get the latter two, reboot yourself by holding the sleep and home buttons at the same time.
9. Upon reboot you should be greeted with your new springboard, which will contain the basic applications and Installer.
10. Run installer and from the 'iJailBreakMobile' category, run 'iPod Touch Software Upgrade'. Or if that doesn't work, as it did for me, add the 'Apple Repository' to installer 'http://applerepo.com' and run their preparation patch.
11. Reboot, and you should have the jiggly icons, all the 'Premium' applications and the ability to add webapps to the springboard through safari.
If installer randomly crashes when installing applications, it's because you're out of space on that partition. I was getting
mv: /bin/: terminated with 1 (non-zero) status: Cross-device linkwhen trying to symlink and move applications. So use this guide.
This method worked fool proofedly for me. You may get a different experience. If things go wrong, force recovery mode and do a restore.
