CentOS Plus kernels?
by Gernot Stocker 10 Nov '08

10 Nov '08

Hello All, I know this might be a nasty question but is there a special reason why there are no up-to-date kernel packages in the centosplus repository? I know, that I can compile it on my own but getting a compiled ne from you seems for all to be the best way of updating kernel. Anyway thank you for your great job you do all the time! Cheers, GS

CentOS 5 ServerCD ?
by Dag Wieers 07 Nov '08

07 Nov '08

Hi, I have been asked a few times about a CentOS 5 ServerCD. Is something like this planned or simply impossible ?

Virtual Machines for testing of forums
by Ralph Angenendt 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

Moin, we have set up two virtual machines at the moment for forum testing, one for php-bb and one for flux-bb. Both machines have a basic LAMP setup. So whoever wants to do some testing for those: Please drop me a mail and you'll get back the password and ip address for that machine. As a bonus you'll also get the ldapmanager password (see LDAP section of <http://wiki.centos.org/WebsiteVer2/forums>) and the location of your user and groups tree in LDAP. If there is someone who wants to test a different forum software, please raise your hand now (Requirements for the software can also be found on <http://wiki.centos.org/WebsiteVer2/forums>). Cheers, Ralph

Isolinux.cfg + multiple ks.cfg problem
by Richard J 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

Hi, I am working on to add two installation options in the isolinux.cfg file. The options are: 1) To automatically install centos (including partitioning the HDD) 2) Manual installation and disk partition For that I used different ks.cfg files: 1) auto.ks.cfg - For automatic installation 2) ks.cfg - for manual installation To select the installation option I edited the isolinux.cfg file as follows: ################################################################ default linux prompt 1 timeout 600 display boot.msg F1 boot.msg F2 options.msg F3 general.msg F4 param.msg F5 rescue.msg F7 snake.msg label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img text ramdisk_size=8192 ks=cdrom:/auto.ks.cfg nousb nopcmcia label text kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img text ramdisk_size=8192 ks=cdrom:/ks.cfg nousb nopcmcia ################################################################ But the problem is when I write "linux text" it starts the 'Automatic' installation. When I done write anything and pressed Enter then also automatic installation starts. Although when i typed 'text' and pressed Enter then 'Manual' installation started. My question is: in the default linux distro when 'linux text' is entered then the installation starts in the text mode else in the graphical mode. I also need to make a similar setup for 'automatic' and 'manual' installation. Can anyone help me out in this matter. Help is much appreciated. :-) Thanks, Richard

Ours is 105M :-/ (And missing the kernel modules, we might want to make an all-in CentOS kernel) I guess we have to discuss some of the details, what we want to accomplish and how we want to do that. I am interested in: - a tool to generate custom initramfs for specific applications to boot directly into, eg ncurses frontends for wiping or ghosting disks, troubleshooting hardware and network problems (this is what I need right now) and other things - a ready-to-go rescue image that people can install in their boot-loader (or maybe we can provide by default ?) so that in case of a real problem (something important for booting trashed) they can find the problem and fix it - a full RIPLinux alike recovery CD including documentation and tools to recover systems (ISO, USB, PXE) using the default CentOS kernel - same full recovery CD with a very recent kernel with more features, the same initramfs could be used for this and the above if all modules are compiled in the kernel (like with RIPLinux) RIPLinux currently also has an X version with a lot more stuff like firefox, flash, minimal window manager, gparted, ... but for me that is not a priority. A full-fledged live cd seems more appropriate for a graphical environment. -- -- dag wieers, dag(a)wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]

centos and HPC
by Karanbir Singh 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

hi, Does anyone have details on what is going on with upstream and their HPC product ? A directory has down up on ftp.redhat.com but there is nothing inside there, and there seems to be not much going on with their sales website either. What we could start working on in the mean time is to get a SIG together, and formulating intent / direction / mechanism etc. Also, HPC itself is quite a vast subject - and perhaps we should not limit ourselves only to the product base that is being released upstream. So if we were to propose a HPC SIG, are there a few people here who would like to join in the effort and help ? - KB -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq
