ARM64 installation issue
by Lomovtsev, Vadim 04 Jul '15

04 Jul '15

Hi all, I've been trying to create installation media (usb) for CentOS 7 at arm64 based hw. I've picked up files from here http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/os/aarch64/ which seems to be an installation related stuff, isn't it? So I've partitioned usb manually copy files on it and so on. System start successful, but later it falls into dracut shell with following message [ 16.061297] localhost systemd[1]: Started Show Plymouth Boot Screen. [ 16.062287] localhost systemd[1]: Started Dispatch Password Requests to Console Directory Watch. [ 16.063309] localhost systemd[1]: Starting Paths.

Could anyone advise me how to fix that or point to where to read ? WBR, Vadim

Need Help With Fixing These armv7hl Build Failures
by Johnny Hughes 26 Jun '15

26 Jun '15

All, People have been asking how they can help the armv7hl (32-bit) build process. There are currently a bunch of packages that have not built in our build passes so far. Most of those just require other non-built packages .. so those we can ignore from now (since, that just requires rebuilding packages in a loop if there are no real build errors). But, there are some packages that actually have real build errors ... that is, all the requirements are met and they are actually failing while trying to build. These packages actually need to get patched or something else to actually build. Here is the list of those packages that need research and fixed to actually build: 4266-bacula-5.2.13-18.el7 4269-base64coder-20101219-10.el7 4350-compat-gcc-32-3.2.3-72.el7 4351-compat-gcc-34-3.4.6-32.el7 4352-compat-gcc-44-4.4.7-8.el7 4353-compat-glibc-2.12-4.el7.centos 4444-easymock2-2.5.2-12.el7 4520-fop-1.1-6.el7 4579-glassfish-fastinfoset-1.2.12-9.el7 4703-hamcrest-1.3-6.el7 4948-ipxe-20130517-6.gitc4bce43.el7 4949-irqbalance-1.0.7-1.el7 4978-java_cup-0.11a-16.el7 5024-junit-4.11-8.el7 5127-libcap-ng-0.7.3-5.el7 5532-mesa-10.2.7-5.20140910.el7 5649-objectweb-asm-3.3.1-9.el7 5650-objectweb-asm4-4.0-3.el7 5691-openssl098e-0.9.8e-29.el7.centos.2 5790-perl-Date-Calc-6.3-13.el7 6170-pyparted-3.9-11.el7 6270-qt-4.8.5-8.el7 6328-sac-1.3-17.el7 6405-softhsm-2.0.0b1-4.el7 6486-telepathy-glib-0.20.4-5.el7 6511-tomcat-7.0.54-1.el7 6588-wsdl4j-1.6.3-3.el7 6589-ws-jaxme-0.5.2-10.el7 6594-xalan-j2-2.7.1-23.el7 6618-xml-commons-apis-1.4.01-16.el7 6619-xml-commons-resolver-1.2-15.el7 6695-atlas-3.10.1-7.el7.centos.0.1 You can actually find the root and build logs of those packages here (under the above listed directories): http://armv7.dev.centos.org/rpmbuild/c7-pass-1-previous-buildlogs/ What do we need for people to do to help ... review the build logs for the above packages and figure out what needs to be done to make them build. Please submit actual fixes to this thread. I will update the list of packages as we fix them. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

Pre-Alpha armv7hl images
by Johnny Hughes 24 Jun '15

24 Jun '15

I just added a Raspberry Pi2 image to the same directory as the previous Cubietruck image. Both of these images work and are based on the packages in our minimal install from x86_64 CentOS-7. These images are both with non-signed RPMs and are based on the current (in progress) builds from our plague-builders. They are not production ready (or even close), and are both designed to be dd copied to an SD Card. Here are links to the write ups for each on seven.centos.org: RPI2: http://seven.centos.org/2015/06/another-proof-of-concept-armv7hl-release-th… Cubietruck: http://seven.centos.org/2015/06/centos-7-1503-armv7hl-proof-of-concept-pre-… Thanks, Johnny Hughes

You're welcome. I will continue to test the stability of the os. Yes you can add it. Thanks Nicolas Le 18 juin 2015 23:19, Mandar Joshi a écrit: After burning img file (4,3GB, maybe we should decrease it to 4GB), centos is booting well. Network is OK on ethernet card. Sata HDD is working. OS is very light, great ! Thank you for testing RootFS Build Factory. I'll add BananaPi to the list of tested boards. Is it ok if I add your name and email address (as "tested by") to the README on github? _______________________________________________ Arm-dev mailing list Arm-dev(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/arm-dev

armv7hl - centos 7.1 rebuild status
by Fabian Arrotin 20 Jun '15

20 Jun '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks ! Just to let you know that the armv7hl plague builders have been busy during the week. Apart from the c7-buildroot, the SRPM packages built through plague are listed here : http://armv7.dev.centos.org/built.html As more and more BuildRequires: deps are now solved, new packages are built every day (all that in loop) Slowly wondering how we can have a look at a minimal list of packages (basically using http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/c7-pass-1/ and http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/c7-buildroot/ ) for a working RootFS that can be tested on various armv7 boards (raspi2, odroid c1, etc ..) As I'm myself a beginner (wrt to ARM platform), searching for opinions/howtos/help from you and see how we can generate that, and also document all that on wiki.centos.org As an example, it seems odroid c1 needs uboot, and I see most people still using the hardkernel.org/odroid kernel, instead of the one from the distro. Is that needed, if so, why, and all such kind of questions that we can put/answer on the wiki. Volunteers ? :-) - -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org gpg key: 56BEC54E | twitter: @arrfab -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlVoaBEACgkQnVkHo1a+xU6FRACgkSCATUH+XLztEXxfuXjuXmi5 GCsAniJN/S/AudeL4ffuCqWbfbBi5PJJ =Z4Av -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Completing the package set
by Karanbir Singh 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

hi guys, We need to get the rest of the distro packages processed in so we have a good baseline for CentOS-7. If needed, we can skip things that might be considered un-needed, but lets get a good list of those together and make sure its visible. Once that is done, we'll need to get the updates going. Who can help with this ? I believe plague is all setup and able to facilitate builds. -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Re: [Arm-dev] Howto / bananapi

Thanks a lot for your quick response. I will try it asap and let you know :-) Nicolas Le 18 juin 2015 08:45, Mandar Joshi a écrit: Where can I find infos to create the image? You can try generating the image using RootFS Build Factory https://github.com/mndar/rbf If it works please let me know so that I can add Bananapi to the list of tested boards. I have added support for bananapi but I don't have one. The support if based on information available here http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F21/Installation Refer README.md It has everything to get you started. You need Linux running on armv7 hardware or Qemu to use RootFS Build Factory. You can generate image for Qemu using the build factory. For Bananapi 1. Clone the repo 2. run the command ./rbf.py build templates/bananapi.xml 3. Write image bananapi-centos-image.img to sd card Regards Mandar Joshi _______________________________________________ Arm-dev mailing list Arm-dev(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/arm-dev

enough packages for a @core install ?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, It seems we have now reach the point where enough packages are built to start looking at producing a working minimal setup.

zfs-fuse and dracut
by Gordan Bobic 10 Jun '15

10 Jun '15

Dear listers, I have modified the ZoL dracut module so it works with zfs-fuse. So if you wanted to be able to use zfs-fuse with a normal initrd with standard interoperability (e.g. have the initrd rebuilt automatically on kernel upgrades), now you can! There is no longer any need to slum it with lesser file systems, even if you are using a 32-bit system (i686, armv5tel, armv7hl, etc.) that doesn't play with with ZoL. :) I am using this on my ARM Chromebook running RedSleeve 7. You can find the code here: zfs-fuse-dracut: https://github.com/gordan-bobic/zfs-fuse-dracut zfs-fuse: https://github.com/gordan-bobic/zfs-fuse This is a fork of Emmanuel's branch that includes support for pool versions up to and including v26. It includes: 1) Latest modifications I made to improve systemd interoperability. 2) Some out of tree patches that that have been shipping with Fedora and Debian It does not yet include any backported patches from Seth's zfs-fuse github tree as I have not yet had time to review the patches since the repository divergence. RPMs are here: http://ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7-extra/SRPMS/zfs-fuse-0.7.1-2.el7.src.rpm http://ftp.redsleeve.org/pub/el7-extra/RPMS/armv5tel/zfs-fuse-0.7.1-2.el7.a… Please try it and report any bugs you encounter. Many thanks. Gordan
