Still the default page from here.
Unless you INTENDED test1.html to be the default page, which is probably not a good idea. Keep at it.

cp index.html.en test1.html
They wanted a static page. I assume Stage 3 will start altering it into something useful. No email yet. This is like a spy movie.

Don't assume
If I told you to install a web site and setup a static page I would not accept this particluar page. This is the one that says you are not done yet.
Just modify it to say "Done, What would you like next?"

?
The problem was to install Apache and put a simple page at test1. How hard to understand is that? When they check my 7 minutes of login time for the console transcript they will so "Ok that was a minimum of keystrokes".
The funny this is, I certainly could have put up any page I wanted, including a gigantic pic of JJ's boob. The activity is in a chrooted box with rooty access.
Still waiting for the next email.

Maybe not at all. Maybe a huge amount.
Why take chances?
The web page states the install is not done. Make it done.
I'd post my resume on it.

test inside the test
initiative. do you have it? I'm betting there's more to this test than what the words in the assignment say. You were asked to put up a web page. I take that to mean a web page you put together. Not someone else's page. I kinda like Barry's resume idea. But since they explicitly said up front they didn't want resumes sent to them, I'd hold off until asked. For you, something from an unusual perspective, maybe a picture of earthrise over the moon, and some text on what you thought of the test so far. Fancy it up. You're trying to impress these people.
Have fun, Carl Forde

I thought of it exactly opposite
Don't you think I thought of doing something clever? I mean, it takes 2 minutes to download Apache and 3 minutes to install it and 5 seconds to start. The purpose of this step is to see if a person is familiar with "cron world". My attitude is - do exactly as told. This is no place for showing off. I think these people are serious. But, we'll see.
This is the way you should hire people, I know that.

If they continue not contacting you, then at least try it.

The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong. We have thrown it away; and with it all that was really respectable about that grotesque and laughable word, Patriotism.
- Mark Twain, "Monarchical and Republican Patriotism"
