centos 6 gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor
by Jerry Geis 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hi all, I am looking at processes in centos 6. How do I stop gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor from starting. I tried searching in gconf-edit for it but did not find anything. I have ran these commands and rebooted. (I verified they are unchecked now also) gconftool-2 -t bool --list-type bool --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount false gconftool-2 -t bool --list-type bool --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount_open false but gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor is still running. Thanks, Jerry

CentOS 6 Webmail
by John Hinton 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

I see that SquirrelMail is gone from 6. Is there a package in here somewhere that is a webmail system? Otherwise, I suppose it lives in one of the repos like sourceforge. I just wanted to check if something new existed before doing that. John

Kickstart and CentOS 6 episode 2...
by John Doe 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

Hey, I solved my "The installation source given by device ['sdb2'] could not be found". Apparently ignoredisk is so strong it not only ignores the disks to be partitioned but also the disks holding the installation source... Now I ran into: In interactive step cleardiskssel, can't continue In anaconda.log I saw: step installtype does not exist step confirminstall does not exist step complete does not exist (14 times) Then it seem to do the step setuptime correctly. And then it goes into stepcleardiskssel and fails. Found an old bug about it, but not much info... https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=565873 My kickstart: cmdline skipx install harddrive --partition=sdb2 --dir=/centos keyboard fr-pc lang en_US timezone Europe/Paris reboot logging --level=info #ignoredisk --only-use=sda part /boot --onpart sda1 --noformat part / --onpart sda2 --noformat part swap --onpart sda3 --noformat part /usr --onpart sda5 --noformat part /var --onpart sda6 --noformat part /home --onpart sda7 --noformat bootloader --driveorder=sda,sdb --location=mbr ... Thx, JD

kvm module and boot order
by Jerry Geis 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

I use kvm-amd a lot to do test installs. I am using it with qemu-kvm-0.14 the lastest. I think your supposed to be able to give your command line and add the parameter " -boot dc" so it initially boots with the cdrom (d) and then after reboot will boot do the HD or c. This never works for me. It always boots CDROM. Is anyone using this argument. Is there something special to do in order to get the first boot on CDrom then the next boot going to HD? Thanks, Jerry

How to test for '.' in a script
by James B. Byrne 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

I am trying to check for a single period '.' in a shell variable. $ I=. $ echo $I . $ if [[ "$I" -eq '.' ]]; then echo true; fi -bash: [[: .: syntax error: operand expected (error token is ".") All other variants of this construct, with and without escape characters, single and double quote combinations, that I can think of all give exactly the same error. How does one check to see for this in a bash script? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
