OK, I understand. I will take another look at my options and maybe try different hardware. I appreciate all of your help, and I might be back again. Thanks!

I am now attempting to install Open Server 5.0.6 on a different server that is from about the same era, and I've gotten it to recognize the hard disk and begin the installation. Now I have a different, less understandable problem.
I will start by saying the CD/DVD drive is recognized in CMOS as the IDE Primary Slave device, and is selected as the first Boot device. The 5.0.6 disk is in that drive and it boots up just fine. When it gets to the part where it lists the devices, however, the drive is not listed - although my hard drive is listed. When installation begins, I get to the point when it asks where my installation files are located, so I select the IDE CD Rom from the list, and I get an error. It says that there is no controller found for the device.
If there is no controller found, how is it reading the disk to get the boot process to start? I don't understand this one, so any help will be appreciated. I know it's been a long time since I've installed this O/S, but I don't remember all of these issues before. Thanks.

is equal to:
tar -cvzf backup.tar --newer-mtime ? (1 Reply)

test::inline::content::legacy
Test::Inline::Content::Legacy(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Test::Inline::Content::Legacy(3pm)
NAME
Test::Inline::Content::Legacy - Test::Inline 2 Content Handler for legacy functions
SYNOPSIS
Custom script content generation using Test::Inline 2.000+ with a custom generator functions
my $header = "....";
my $function = sub {
my $Object = shift;
my $Script = shift;
return $header . $Script->merged_content;
};
my $Inline = Test::Inline->new(
...
file_content => $function,
);
Migrating this same code to Test::Inline 2.100+ ContentHandler objects
my $header = "....";
my $function = sub {
my $Object = shift;
my $Script = shift;
return $header . $Script->merged_content;
};
my $ContentHandler = Test::Inline::Content::Legacy->new( $function );
my $Inline = Test::Inline->new(
...
ContentHandler => $ContentHandler,
);
DESCRIPTION
This class exists to provide a migration path for anyone using the custom script generators in Test::Inline via the "file_content" param.
The synopsis above pretty much says all you need to know.
METHODS
new $CODE_ref
The "new" constructor for "Test::Inline::Content::Legacy" takes a single parameter of a "CODE" reference, as you would have previously
provided directly to "file_content".
Returns a new "Test::Inline::Content::Legacy" object, or "undef" if not passed a "CODE" reference.
coderef
The "coderef" accessor returns the "CODE" reference for the object
process $Inline $Script
The "process" method works with the legacy function by passing the Test::Inline and Test::Inline::Script arguments straight through to the
legacy function, and returning it's result as the return value.
