Installing Cisco MeetingPlace Express on unsupported hardware

1. You must copy files from instalation media, we should do this with tar to preserve file permissions. The command could be like this (if you run it from root folder of installation CD/DVD) tar -cvpf /where-to-put-file/mpe.tar.gz /
2. You must untar files, preserving file permissions (do not untar to NTFS volume this would break file permissions). tar -xv --preserve-permissions -f mpe.tar.gz
3. You should patch file hwdetect in /Cisco/vendor/misc/bin according to your server HW (personaly I changed CPU's speed to 2800MHz instead of real 3000MHz). Beware to keep the permissions of file after changing it.
   
4. Make on iso of new installation, I use this command: mkisofs -o mpe2.0.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -l -f -allow-lowercase -allow-multidot -boot-load-size 4 -d -R /root-directory-with-you-MPE-files/. You should make on iso so that all files on it appear as on original CD/DVD (same letter case, same format, and so on). You should pay attention that Cisco uses symlinks on it's CD/DVD so you must keep them on your iso file.
