re-install over internet
by Bob Puff 15 Jun '09

15 Jun '09

Hello, I just got back from a datacenter where I installed a new server running CentOS 5.3. I set up a software raid with md0 being /. (Only one mount, didn't split anything up.) I just discovered that instead of raid 1, it did raid 0... Not exactly what I wanted! Probably missed that little check when installing. So now, I need to change this. But since the whole OS is on this raided partition that I want to change, I'm a bit stuck. Is there a way to launch an installer while in the OS that I can re-install the whole thing over the internet, without having to physically go to the box? Speed of installation is not that much of an issue. It would obviously need to keep up some sort of shell with my current eth0 settings during the install. Thanks for any ideas! Bob

Fonts missing in KDE/vnc
by Kevin Thorpe 15 Jun '09

15 Jun '09

Hi all, sorry if this question gets duplicated, I can't seem to get e-mails to the list. I've installed vnc-server and kde-desktop but there appear to be no fonts available. All the text is little boxes. What else do I need to install to get the fonts? thanks

scsi_id doesn't returns any result
by carlopmart 15 Jun '09

15 Jun '09

Hi all, I need to assign persistent names to some scsi disks on one host (CentOS 5.3 fully patched), but I can't because scsi_id doesn't returns any results. For example: [root@c5srv01 etc]# scsi_id -u -g -s /block/sda [root@c5srv01 etc]# scsi_id -u -g -s /block/sdb [root@c5srv01 etc]# scsi_id -u -g -s /block/sdc [root@c5srv01 etc]# scsi_id -u -g -s /block/sdd Somebody knows what can it be wrong?? Many thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

"Linux aux petits oignons" - Book about Linux based on CentOS 5.3 (french)
by Niki Kovacs 14 Jun '09

14 Jun '09

Hi, The last six months, I've been busy writing "Linux aux petits oignons", a general introduction to GNU/Linux. The book is aimed at the beginner (or intermediate) reader, though : 1) it's *not* based on Ubuntu, but on CentOS 5.3 2) it doesn't shy away from explaining basic UNIX concepts 3) it favours the use of simple command-line tools Here's the editor's page : http://www.editions-eyrolles.com/Livre/9782212124248/linux-aux-petits-oigno… And here's the book on Amazon : http://www.amazon.fr/Linux-Petits-Oignons-Après-Windows/dp/2212124244 It's 550 pages thick, but you can (almost) read it like a novel. Enjoy ! Niki PS : for those who wonder, "Kiki Novak" is my pen name.

kickstart question
by Jerry Geis 13 Jun '09

13 Jun '09

Hi all, I have a kickstart file that works for /dev/sda. I now need to detect an HP server and use /dev/cciss instead of hard coded /dev/sda. How can I detect what the name of the device is and use /dev/cciss and not /dev/sda? Jerry
