converting a RHEL box to CentOS
by Alan McKay 16 Sep '13

16 Sep '13

Hey folks, Google found nothing in this list archives for me but did find this : http://www.unixmen.com/how-to-jul-convert-rhel-5-to-centos-5/ Before I just go try that on one of my systems can someone confirm that it works? I'm running RHEL 5.7 so I guess I'd replace the 5.4 in the URL with 5.7 Basically I let my RHEL licenses run out (never really used them) and am getting warnings now from yum. Want to just switch over to the CentOS repos. Anything to be wary of doing this? thanks, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

grub command line
by Ahmad AlTwaijiry 15 Sep '13

15 Sep '13

Hello Everyone I have a remote CentOS 6.4 server (with KVM access), when I received the server it was running with LVM on single disk (sda) I managed to remove LVM and install raid 1 in sda and sdb disks the mirroring is working fine, my only issue now is that everytime I reboot the server I got the grub command line and I have manually boot using comand grub> configfile (hd1,0)/grub/grub.conf OR grub> configfile (hd0,0)/grub/grub.conf then it will boot fine without any error. Any idea how can I make it auto boot ? I tried almost everything I can find in the internet. Note: each disk (sda & sdb) is 2TB size, could this be the problem? . # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md2 1.8T 1.1G 1.7T 1% / tmpfs 16G 0 16G 0% /dev/shm /dev/md0 1.9G 69M 1.8G 4% /boot # cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md2 : active raid1 sda3[2] sdb3[0] 1940882240 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] md1 : active raid1 sdb2[0] sda2[2] 10482176 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] md0 : active raid1 sdb1[0] sda1[1] 2008000 blocks [2/2] [UU] unused devices: <none> # fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 2000.4 GB, 2000398934016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 243201 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000b0530 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 250 2008093+ 83 Linux /dev/sda2 251 1556 10490445 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda3 1557 243201 1941013462+ fd Linux raid autodetect # fdisk -l /dev/sdb Disk /dev/sdb: 2000.4 GB, 2000398934016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 243201 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0xadb3bd62 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 1 250 2008093+ fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sdb2 251 1556 10490445 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sdb3 1557 243201 1941013462+ fd Linux raid autodetect # cat grub.conf # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition.

Hello there, is it me or a recent glibc update in CentOS6 did break audio tagtool? It now shows utf8 conversion errors and crashes. A rebuild from the sources didn't help. Regards, -- wwp

Building CentOS 6.2 custom install media
by Daniel Drake 14 Sep '13

14 Sep '13

Hi, For the OLPC school server ("XS") we are planning to move from our dated F9 setup to CentOS 6.2. Thanks for all the effort involved in producing this distro. One important part of this project is a 'respin' of the install media - we need to add a handful of packages from external repositories, and maybe run a command late in the install. Are the scripts/configurations used to produce the CentOS official CD/DVDs available? I guess this would be our most reliable/sensible starting point. I am familiar with pungi, kickstart, anaconda, etc, so just a simple git link would be enough to get me started. Thanks, Daniel
