Kita mulai ok .. (klo ada yg ga ngerti … ya baca buku/ebook dong)

• Pastikan ubuntu udah ok, dan login menggunakan user yg dibuat waktu instalasi

• Masukkan cd Ubuntu server, pastikan sudah mount (tampil di desktop)

• Klik menu System – Administration – Synaptic Package Manager, masukkan password user yg dibuat waktu instalasi, akan tampil GUI Synaptic.

• Secara default pada tab sebelah kanan akan tampil paket2 yang sudah terinstall di system. Untuk menambahkan paket2 yang ada d CD Ubuntu server klik menu Edit Add CD-ROM; enter aja klo ada konfirmasi. Klik Reload, akan terjadi proses download daftar paket dari CD ROM, setelah selesai pada tab sebelah kanan sekarang muncul paket2 yang ada di CD Ubuntu server di samping itu paket yg sudah terinstall jg tampil (bedanya kalo paket yang blm terinstall ditandai dengan kotak warna putih, untuk yg sudah terinstal berwarna hijau)

• Pilih paket apache2 di daftar paket, dengan cara klik kanan dan pilih Mark for installation, muncul kotak konfirmasi bahwa paket yang dipilih akan otomatis menyertakan paket lain yang dibutuhkan; klik Mark, salah satu kelebihan Syaptic adalah kita tidak perlu memikirkan library yang di butuhkan oleh paket yg akan kita install, karena otomatis akan terpilih bersamaan dengan saat kita memilih paket; skrg paket tersebut ditandai dengan panah kuning yg artinya siap di install.

• Klik Aply, akan muncul kota dialog Summary; klik Aply, ada dua proses penting waktu instalasi paket yaitu Downloading package files dan Installing Software, tunggu sampai ada konfirmasi Changes Complete (install complete).

Udah beres nih … tinggal testing dan konfigurasi

Testing Apache2

• Buka terminal

• Ketik : #sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start

• Masukkan password user yg dibuat waktu instalasi klo diminta (maksudnya : karena kita login dengan user biasa, sedangkan untuk konfigurasi dan menjalakan service di sistem harus root (administrator kalo di windows) maka kita memakai perintah sudo artinya mengeksekusi perintah sebagai root)

• Akan muncul pesan bahwa web server sudah jalan.

• Tinggal kita tes di browser, buka Mozilla Firefox ketik : http://localhost di address

• Klo tidak ada masalah akan muncul It Works di halaman browser.

• Untuk ngetes pakai halaman html, bikin aja file index.html dan letakkan di /var/www/ (default directory web)

NB : Wajib membaca boko/ebook, klo gak…. Lu bakal bingung istilah2 yg asingnya (padahal aq udah usahain pake bahasa tradisional)

Pasti temen2 bingung nih, knapa aq pilih ubuntu untuk server n clientnya?

Nah … benar tuh …

Yang jelas dari posting sebelumnya tentang instalasi ubuntu sudah pasti instalasinya sangat mudah, namun alasan lainnya adalah :

• CD Instalasi pasti Live CD, artinya kita bisa try dulu ubuntu di PC kita, trus kita cek apakah semua hardware kita di support oleh ubuntu ato gak (kedetek drivernya)!

• Komunitas nya banyak, jika kita kesulitan ya gabung aja di forum2 yang bertebaran di internet, baik yg pake boso planet ato boso medureh … (ha…)

• Techinical support nya bagus, untuk update / install paket 2 yang aga ada di CD instalasi kita tinggal konek aja ke server repo di internet trussss pake aplikasi synaptic untuk install paket pilihan, tanpa berurusan sama coding yg macemmm2 tancap gas deh, ato klo punya DVD reponya tinggal add aj.

• Ktne di internet, ubuntu termasuk distro yang paling stabil, user friendly ncocok u server maupun client.

• De el el.

Hardy Heron step-by-step installation guide with screenshots.

So you’ve heard about Ubuntu everywhere on the Internet and you’ve decided to install it on your computer (just to see if what you heard about it is true or not) and you don’t know how to do it?

Look no further! This guide will make things very simple for you, as it will teach you, step-by-step, how to install the latest version of Ubuntu operating system (current version is 8.04 LTS codename Hardy Heron) on your PC in no more than 10 minutes (depending on your computer specs, of course). Are you ready? Let’s start!

Step 1 – Download the Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop ISO image, that corresponds to your hardware architecture (i386 or amd64), from here.

Step 2 – Burn the ISO image with your favorite CD/DVD burning application (on Windows, you can use one of the following applications: Nero, CDBurnerXP, Roxio etc) on a blank CD at 8x speed.

Step 3 – Insert or leave the CD in your CD/DVD-ROM device and reboot your computer. Select your language when asked:

Then select the second option “Install Ubuntu” and hit Enter:

Step 4 – Wait for the CD to load into RAM, and when the installer appears, select your native language and click the ‘Forward’ button:

Where are you?

The second screen will feature a map of the Earth with little red dots, so you can select your city/country. Upon the current selection of your location, the time for the final system will adjust accordingly. You can also select your current location from the drop down list situated at the bottom of the window. Click the ‘Forward’ button after you have selected your desired location.

Test your keyboard

On the third screen, you will be asked to select the keyboard layout that suits you best (default is U.S. English). You can also test your keyboard on the little text input field situated at the bottom of the window. Click the ‘Forward’ button when you have finished with the keyboard configuration.

Hard disk partitioning

Hold on, don’t leave just yet! The hard disk partitioning is an easy task, so I am quite sure you will manage to handle it too. You have three options:

1. If you want to keep your existing operating system (e.g. Dual boot with Windows XP), select the first option: “Guided – resize the partition and use the freed space”.
2. If you want to delete your existing operating system and you want to let the installer to automatically partition the hard drive for you, select the second option: “Guided – use entire disk”.
3. Manual is the third choice at this point and I strongly suggest you to use it if you don’t have any other operating system installed and your hard drive does not contain important data on it. Follow the instructions below:

Choose the hard drive partition (or entire hard drive if you don’t have any partitions) you want to format and click the ‘Delete partition’ button to delete the selected partitions. In the end, you should have a single entry called “free space”, select it and click the ‘New partition’ button to create the ‘root’ partition. Select “Primary” for the partition type, set the size of the partition (in megabytes), leave the “Location for the new partition” and “Use as” options as they are and select the mount point “/” (just like in the image below).

You should still have a “free space” line, select it and click the ‘New partition’ button to create the ‘home’ partition. Select “Logical” for the partition type, set the size of the partition (in megabytes), leave the “Location for the new partition” and “Use as” options as they are and select the mount point “/home” (just like in the image below).

You should still have some “free space” left, so select it and click the ‘New partition’ button to create the ‘swap’ partition. Select “Logical” for the partition type, set the size of the partition (in megabytes) twice your RAM (e.g. if you have 512 RAM, set the size to 1024), leave the “Location for the new partition” option as it is and set the “Use as” option to ‘swap’.

WARNING: Be aware that all the data on the selected hard drive will be ERASED and IRRECOVERABLE!

Click the ‘Forward’ button to continue with the installation.

Who are you?

Here you must do exactly what the title of this step tells you to do. You must fill in a couple of fields with your real name, the name you want to use to log in on your Ubuntu OS (username), password and the name of the computer (automatically generated). Once you have finished with this step, click the Forward button again (for the last time).

Are you really ready for Ubuntu?

If you have successfully arrived at this point, then you are definitely ready for your new Ubuntu operating system. So, what are you waiting for? Click the ‘Install’ button NOW!

The Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) operating system will be installed…

Step 5 – After approximately 8 to 10 minutes, a pop-up window will appear, notifying you that the installation is complete and you need to restart the computer in order to use the newly installed Ubuntu:

You’ve probably clicked the ‘Restart now’ button, because you were very excited to see your new Ubuntu operating system at work. Well then, have fun using it!

Tapi untuk laboratorium komputer di sekolah menengah, saya harus menyesuaikan dengan kebutuhan sekolah, service apa yang harus saya sediakan, termasuk pemilihan operating system untuk server dan client. Apalagi hampir semua sekolah menengah di Madura tidak terkoneksi dengan internet, sehingga saya harus ekstra keras meyediakan service2 yang sangat dibutuhkan oleh siswa, yang tentu saja hanya jaringan lokal saja/intranet. Tapi bagaimana caranya ya… walaupun hanya jaringan intranet tapi seolah2 para siswa terhubung dengan internet ?

Alhasil ……

Sekarang semua komputer di SMA 1 Kwanyar Bangkalan telah terkoneksi dengan jaringan intranet, dan semua civitas dapat mengakses service2 yang disediakan oleh server seperti : web utama, blog, chatting, bse (buku sekolah elektronik), mirror edukasi.net, situs ilmu komputer, ftp server dan sebagainya yang semuanya saya hosting di server menggunakan DNS (Domain Name Server) di www.sma1-kwanyar.org.

Nah … pengalaman ini yang akan saya sharing untuk teman2 pegelola/laboran laboratorium sekolah menengah.
