by aurfalien 30 Jun '10

Hi list, I'm running 2.6.18-164-15.1 xen kernel. Any way to get firewire to work on it? I've read plenty about needing the centosplus kernel but is that really necessary? - aurf

Grub fails on dell optiplex 320

I booted with linux rescue 2. chroot /mnt/sysimage 3. yum upgrade 4. reboot 5. 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 6. hang... Per [4] this should have been fixed in 2.6.20 (2007), did this get back ported by the upstream? The LILO solution wont work because we have to use LVM.

Dell R605 w/ Perc 6/i problem
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

I think there was just a thread 'bout this, and I didn't pay attention... and then I walked into our smallest server room to rebuild a server with CentOS... and that's what it is. The problem I'm having is this: there are two 1T SAS drives, raided, via the controller. There's also a 750G SATA drive. The Dell test suite sees it, and reports that SMART says it's fine. However, no matter what I do, the BIOS doesn't see it, and when I boot to linux text, fdisk only sees the raided 1t. Clues for the poor? I want to put the system on the SATA drive, leaving the raid for data. mark

Samba and " (and maybe other characters) in paths/files
by RedShift 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Hello I have samba installed on my server, with a fileshare. When connecting to samba, using windows, filesnames with " (double quotes) in them become gibberish on the windows client. Under linux I connect to these fileshares using NFS, and the names are correct (I also created them this way). I've made a screenshot: http://users.webmind.be/~glenn/samba.PNG How can I fix this? Thanks, Glenn

fresh install of centos looking for non-existant /dev/hda : /dev/hda: open failed: No medium found

# lvm pvs /dev/hda: open failed: No medium found Couldn't find device with uuid r5HNPO-l18V-XfJ7-9RXY-AaWC-a4YY-3oL5h7. PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/sda2 VolGroup01 lvm2 a- 232.72G 0 /dev/sdb1 VolGroup00 lvm2 a- 232.81G 32.00M unknown device VolGroup00 lvm2 a- 232.72G 32.00M I just installed the OS, did some tweaks, but did nothing to hardware. There was no /dev/hda listed when I went through the partitioning page of the install. Where did this come from? How do I get rid of it? Does it matter? mahalo, Dave

centos5.5 text install forcing me to add all disks to LVM volgroup
by Dave 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

Graphic installer doesn't like my graphics card, so I am using the text installer. I have two physical disks in my system. When I get to the "partitioning type" page, I choose "remove all partitions on selected drives [etc]" and put an asterisk next to sda, no asterisk next to sdb. I want to use sdb as a separate partition, no LVM, I figure I can set it up after installing. Then I hit 'OK' and go to the warning page, say yes. Review and modify partitioning layout - yes. So now I am looking at the partitioning page and I am surprised to see /dev/sdb and sdb1 down at the bottom, since that disk was *not* selected. I select sdb1 and try to delete, it says " unable to delete You cannot delete this partition: this parition is part of the LVM volume group 'volgroup00'". If I try to delete /dev/sdb1, it says I must choose a partiton. If i try to edit volgroup00, it says 'LVM volume groups can only be edited in the graphical installer." So, am I stuck? It seems like my only option is to go ahead and add both disks, then try to remove one of the disks after completing the install. Is there some sort of workaround for this? What if I actually had some data on that drive (fortunately I do not), would it get wiped by this? Mahalo, Dave
