Gentoo? What do you have against the OP? Why subject him to such madness and unnecessary pain? :D In my recent trip through i486 land, I found that Debian seems to be the best bet for nearly all packages being natively available in i386. Also, the installation can be pruned down to a very slim ~140MB if you're careful. Tim Nelson Systems/Network Support Rockbochs Inc. (218)727-4332 x105

Any way to initiate a kickstart from shell prompt?
by Spiro Harvey 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

Hi all, I've set up a CentOS flash stick using the LiveCD tools, then dumping that onto flash with a persistent overlay - instructions here: http://wtf.geek.nz/?blog/2009/12/08/how-to-make-a-useful-centos-utility-fla… This gets me to a prompt in which I can do recovery stuff, but I'm curious to know if it's possible to initiate a kickstart install onto the local disks from that prompt. I've got a separate stick that appends ks= lines to boot different kickstart files, but I'd really like to have the ability to do this on the non-auto-install stick too. Is this possible? Is there a command that kicks this off? Cheers -- Spiro Harvey Knossos Networks Ltd 021-295-1923 www.knossos.net.nz

Re: [CentOS] Installing R on CentOS 5
by Brent L. Bates 08 Dec '09

Anyone thought about installing R from the Scientific Linux site? R is a standard part of SL. It might be a bit more compatible with CentOS than other sites. Just an idea. -- Brent L.

Mic not working with skype
by Andrew 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

I've just installed a beta version of skype in CentOS 5.3 and everything seems fine - the mic is working OK as I can hear it through the speakers (feedback). Problem is I can't get the mic to actually work with skype (eg with skype call testing service) - it may be that one of the many settings is incorrect - has anybody else had this problem and got any suggestions please?

CentOS 5.4 x86_64 only detects 32GB RAM while Fedora x86_64 correctly lists 128GB
by Diederick Stoffers 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

Hi, We have a new 24-core Dell PowerEdge R905 server with 128GB's RAM. The 64 bits version of Fedora 12 lists the correct amount of 128GB, CentOS only finds 32GB (and so does Scientific Linux). I would much prefer to use CentOS (most of the software we use is specifically designed for CentOS). Does anyone know what is causing this/how to fix it? Many Thanks, Diederick
