Comment on Installing Windows 7 on HP Mini 1000 Through Network by Mike

Same here. Seems like the 64bit version of windows 7 doesn’t want to run in a CLI environment. Get the same effect as you get with any 32/64bit exe file trying to run it in a pure dos/dos-like environment. “setup.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows you’re running. Check your computer’s system information to see whether you need a x86 or x64 version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.

It seems that the tftpboot program with the boot.wim is 32bit which makes sense that it won’t load the 64bit version of setup.exe.

Comment on Unblocking Ports in Mozilla Firefox by Dustin

Does it actually give a warning in Firefox that the port is blocked? If it doesn’t then this setting won’t apply. If there’s no warning, my guess is that it has something to do with the protocol handler in Firefox limiting itself to ports 20-21. You can get around this by adding two boolean keys to the Firefox config. Adding these keys will pass the ftp server address on to an application such as Explorer or an FTP client of your choice when you visit an FTP server in Firefox. network.protocol-handler.expose.ftp:false and network.protocol-handler.external.ftp:true

I wish I could say the same. I setup a special port on our ftp server, port 743, and then used your instruction to override 743. It still hangs when I try to go into that site using port 743. It doesn’t seem to have the problem with the standard port 21. So far, the only browser that doesn’t have a problem with this port is Google Chrome.

I just happened across your blog when searching for a firefox bug (unblocking ports), and I noticed we have the exact same theme on our blogs….

Shh! I won’t tell if you don’t!
