gui on Rasberry Pi 2 Model B
by johan.vermeulen7＠telenet.be 24 Feb '16

24 Feb '16

Hello All, i'm trying to get some gui on the Rasberry Pi. I ran : #yum groupinstall "Server with GUI" #systemctl set-default graphical.target I see no "X Window System" and I think some X packages were installed with the server with gui. Does anyone have this running? Many thanks. Johan

testing updated kernels - feedback wanted !
by Fabian Arrotin 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, With the recent CVE-2016-0728, I was quickly having a look at updating the different kernels we ship through the official images. Actually we only have two kernels : - - what I'd call the "generic" one (that can be used on multiple boards directly, and following the Fedora upstream kernel) - - the raspberrypi2 variant (built from sources located at https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux) I've built (and tested locally those myself) the following updated kernels (including patches for CVE-2016-0728) : - - kernel-4.3.3-200.el7.armv7hl.rpm (updating kernel-4.2.3-200.el7.armv7hl.rpm) - - raspberrypi2-kernel-4.1.16-v7+.1.20160125gitab2b2e0.el7.armv7hl.rpm (for rpi2, obviously, updating raspberrypi2-kernel-4.1.11-v7+.1.20151021git4047fe2.el7.armv7hl.rpm) One important thing is that actually we still lack an automatic update process, something I'd like to work (with you ?) in the following days/weeks. But you can already test the updated/unsigned kernels (feedback wanted !) - - create the /etc/yum.repos.d/ .repo file pointing to corresponding repo, depending on your board : - http://dev.centos.org/centos/7/kernel/armhfp/kernel-generic/ - http://dev.centos.org/centos/7/kernel/armhfp/kernel-rpi2/ as an example, here is how it would look like : [kernel-generic] name=armhfp kernel generic baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/7/kernel/armhfp/kernel-generic/ gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 or [kernel-rpi2] name=armhfp rpi2 kernel baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/7/kernel/armhfp/kernel-rpi2/ gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 - - now "yum clean all ; yum update" - - as the current call to "/bin/kernel-install add" (from systemd shipped with CentOS 7) doesn't cover - in the whole chain- armhfp, one then needs to build the initramfs + modify boot config rpi2 : - dracut /boot/initramfs-4.1.16-v7+.1.20160125gitab2b2e0.el7.img 4.1.16-v7+.1.20160125gitab2b2e0.el7 - systemctl reboot generic : - dracut /boot/initramfs-4.3.3-200.el7.armv7hl.img 4.3.3-200.el7.armv7hl - edit /boot/extlinux.conf to modify the kernel/initrd - systemctl reboot Thanks for the testers, and after we can edit the wiki page, and start working on a script that would automate all that.

FWIW -- I received a MP30-AR0 this week myself and have been trying to get CentOS 7.2 installed. https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/AltArch/AArch64/Mustang, which is based on the same processor, says a UEFI bootloader is required. I tried following the instructions; now my server is a paperweight and I'm waiting to hear back from tech support.

will there be freeipa-server packages ?
by Rob Verduijn 11 Feb '16

11 Feb '16

Hi all, First major kudo's for porting centos to arm devices. I've been looking forward to run centos on my arm devices for some time now, and have been watching this project with great interest for some time now. I've reinstalled my rpi2 with the latest image and all went smooth out of the box. No editing/hacks needed, just the filesystem resize which worked exactly as described. No issues whatsoever, really great work ppl. I was wondering if the freeipa-server package would also be made available in the arm repos. With only two adjustments in the timeouts I managed to get that one working on my rpi2 running fedora. Cheers Rob Verduijn p.s. for the curious ppl regarding the timeouts: before the installation : adjust /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ipa/lib/constants.py --> wijzig startup_timeout from 300 to 600 after the installation add "startup_timeout=600" to /etc/ipa/default.conf also you need to apply a HUGE amount of patience for installing, configuring and (re-)booting the rpi2 with freeipa server (as the 600 second timeout already implies)

CubieTruck on CubieTruck Plus (was: CubieTruck Plus (Cubieboard5) image)

This is the image: http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/armv7hl/cubietruck/images/. Is that correct? If so, I'm happy to give it a go and report back. Jeff

CubieTruck Plus (Cubieboard5) image
by Jeffrey Walton 09 Feb '16

09 Feb '16

Hi Everyone, I picked up a board CubieTruck Plus (Cubieboard5). The stock image does not boot or I did something wrong with 7z and dd (http://dl.cubieboard.org/model/Cubietruck-plus/image/linux/linaro-desktop/V…). I want to try another image, and I see Cubieboard mentioned on occasion. I searched the archive, but did not find anything specific for the CubieTruck Plus. RM mentioned the board was shipping on January 6 (http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/arm-dev/2016-January/001566.html). I'm especially interested in the octa-core with 2 GB of RAM. It should speed up my ARM testing by a factor of about 3 because I can run 'make -j N'. With a single/dual core and less than 1GB of RAM, I found I cannot drive make like that due to OOMs. Would someone be able to point me to an image for the CubieTruck Plus (Cubieboard5)? Thanks in advance.

Hummingboard
by johan.vermeulen7＠telenet.be 01 Feb '16

01 Feb '16

Hello All, this is my first post on this mailing list. In our organization we have just over 100 thinclients. One day I thought: wouldn't it be great if we could replace them with Rasberry Pi's? After experimenting with that I thought: this arm is great, cheap, silent and shiny new. So I was thinking: I need something stronger than the Rasberry Pi. Maybe I can replace some light servers as well. So I bought a Hummingboard Edge from Solidrun and had it shipped from Israel. The strongest model I could find. Here are the specs: https://www.solid-run.com/freescale-imx6-family/hummingboard/hummingboard-s… Can anybody help me get Centos7 running on that? So far I tried the CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-Minimal-1511-RaspberryPi2.img.xz and the CentOS-7-aarch64.img.xz I haven't tested in any detail so far but both showed nothing on the screen. My ultimate goal would be to use Hummingboards with Centos7 on them as Ovirt or Kubernetes nodes. Thanks for any advise. Greetings, Johan

qt-devel for armhfp
by Frederick Gleason 21 Jan '16

21 Jan '16

I cannot locate the qt-devel package for armhfp. All the other usual Qt4 goodies (qt-mysql, etc) are in the Base repo as expected, but not the -devel package. The same appears to hold for qt3-devel. Were these not built for some reason, or am I just looking in the wrong place? Cheers! |----------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.
