Dual Layer DVD iso for 6.3 / 5.8
by Karanbir Singh 09 Feb '12

09 Feb '12

Hi Guys, there were some great conversations and ideas that came from the Fosdem weekend, over the next few days I'll try and summarise as many as I can and get some conversations started around the ideas. One thing that came up a few times, and Andreas mentioned as well, was that it might be a good idea to produce a single DVD iso, suitable for use on large dual layer DVD's as they are now starting to become more popular. Its fairly easy to do, however I would not be all that keen on exporting that via the regular mirrors. Therefore expanding the idea a bit : - Should we consider doing CD isos as well as dual layer DVD ones ? - Should we consider only having these two media formats available via torrent ? -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh ICQ: 2522219 | Yahoo IM: z00dax | Gtalk: z00dax GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

CentOS 6.2 New Kernel Issues
by Jonathan Vomacka 09 Feb '12

09 Feb '12

CentOS 6.2 Community / Developers, Are there any known issues with the latest Kernel on CentOS 6.2? I performed a yum update and the kernel downloaded. When the system rebooted I started having intermittent latency issues when trying to perform certain commands on the system such as top or ls -ltr, etc. I was having extreme latency getting to root. I am unsure if there is a hardware compat issue but I found my server in kernel PANIC mode the next day and was unable to login entirely. Has this been reported before?

Tetsuo, This resolves the issue. Booting using an earlier version of the kernel allows my system to be stable. So it seems like the new kernel is not working with my hardware? Is this a normal occurrence sometimes? Should I be collecting information to write it up as a bug report, or am I screwed with that version of the kernel? Thanks so much for your help btw Tetsuo.
