RHEL U4

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.

kernel update with yum - no grub entry
by Paul Pianta 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Hi people I am new to this list - actually I am one of (probably) a few who are jumping ship from WBEL. I feel like a bit of a scab jumping over at this time - but we all make mistakes eh? I have installed CentOS and ran 'yum update' and installed everything it prompted me for. After a reboot, I realised I had booted into the same original kernel-2.4.21-20.EL.c0smp and not the updated one - kernel-2.4.21-20.0.1.ELsmp. Upon further inspection I found that there was no entry made in grub.conf for the new kernel, and there is no initrd in /boot for this new kernel. Could someone please explain what has happened and whether it is normal behaviour or not? I am used to updating a kernel with yum and having all of the grub stuff done automatically for me :/ Now that I might have to do it manually myself I am getting all sooky and so came to this list to cry for help (and coz I'm a lazy bastard!). So ... -- pAntZ Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes!

Some questions regarding CEntos
by Max Beerli 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Hello list. I am assigned the task to select a RHEL3 clone operating system for a couple of servers. So far I have found Whitehat Linux, Tao, Scientific Linux and Centos. I like the community developed aspect advantage of Centos compared to the other distros where one or couple people maintain the operating system. - Is this a long term goal project? How does it sustain itself? How much extra money is usually required on a monthly basis for operations? I noticed that developers had to pay for hosting costs when new iso images were released. Wouldn't using bittorrent cut down on downloading costs? - How does Centos compare to other RHEL clones? Are there enough developers to quickly update packages when Redhat makes security announcements? - Do Centos developers have access to RHEL3 machines or is everything done on Centos computers? For that matter do developers compile the Redhat released SRPMS + updates on RHEL computers or are binary RPM packages built on Centos operating system itself? I am asking because it would seem to me that using a full Redhat provided distro to build packages might introduce less erorrs? - What is changed from official RHEL releases besides the copyrighted logos for each Centos release? I am not talking about packages in the addons directories. Just the base os release packages. Many thank yous.Max. _________________________________________________________________ Take advantage of powerful junk e-mail filters 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*.

RE: [Centos] VMWare problems on CentOS 3.3 x86-64
by Ryan Rothert 11 Dec '04

I ran into this same problem with x86-64 and VMWare GSX server, VMWare does not officially support x86-64 yet. The VMWare binaries are 32bit... Ryan -----Original Message----- From: centos-admin(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-admin@caosity.org] On Behalf Of Will Dinkel Sent: Friday, December 10, 2004 9:55 AM To: Rob Beard Cc: centos(a)caosity.org Subject: Re: [Centos] VMWare problems on CentOS 3.3 x86-64 Your system does have an ld-linux installed, it's just the 64-bit version from glibc x86_64: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 Looks like VMWare needs the 32-bit ld-linux.so.2, which comes in glibc i686.
