I get impression that Centos development process is better compared to Whitebox because community working on OS is better than one person. _________________________________________________________________ Take charge with a pop-up guard built on patented Microsoft® SmartScreen Technology http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=ht… Start enjoying all the benefits of MSN® Premium right now and get the first two months FREE*.

CentOS newbie just saying hello
by Nigel Kendrick 14 Dec '04

14 Dec '04

Hi folks, Just a quick hello having installed CentOS on my first box - an Acer Altos G310 (P4 2.8GHz, 768MB RAM with 70GB + 300GB storage. The 300GB unit is a SATA disk which I hope to software (hardware!?) mirror - if I'm in for any major fun mirroring a SATA drive do let me know now - I think hardware mirroring is not an option (yet!?) but I haven't checked this out completely. This isn't my first *nix/linux install - I go all the way back to Daisy Dnix, Xenix, SC..er..you know who..unix, via VAX VMS and CP/M on various systems. I have a couple of RH9 boxes that will need updating soon and I'm also running one other Acer G310 server on..er..White Box..(sorry!) so this is kind of a 'keeping my options open' thing! This new G310 will be running Bacula to provide remote backup services for 25 regional sites, and the other G310 is being used as a mail/Web/Intranet (eGroupWare) server for our 250 staff. Thanks to all those who made CentOS what it is - hope I can 'give back' sometime by sharing my experience where relevant. Nigel Kendrick --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

U4 beta rpms for CentOS
by lance＠uklinux.net 14 Dec '04

14 Dec '04

I have built a set of preview U4 beta rpms for CentOS i386 - these will become the basis of CentOS 3.4 when Rhel 3 U4 is released. I will not be pushing these out to the mirrors, but they are available at http://beta.caosity.org/centos/3.3/U4beta The beta packages are not signed. To add then to yum.conf add :- [u4beta] name=CentOS-$releasever - U4beta baseurl=http://beta.caosity.org/centos/$releasever/U4beta/$basearch/ gpgcheck=0 Please do not use these on production servers as consequences cannot be predicted .. I'll be rolling some beta isos in the next few days Any problems - bugzilla ... Regards Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

RHEL U4
by William Warren 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Has anyone heard any rumblings as to when U4 is coming out? I am hoping they fixed the VM bugs..<G> -- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. -- carpe ductum -- "Grab the tape"
