Re: [CentOS] problem installing CentOS 5.3

If I run yom I get a message to the effect that a database is malformed. It downs't say if the database is mine or the morrors, though. What should I do about that ? I hould have mentioned that I ran memtest86 after installing some new memory (this was before my last install of CentOS). I let it complete one pass (about an hour and a half) and it found no errors. Thanks, Buz Davis

>From Karan's blog: A few of us are going to be getting together for drinks on the Tuesday 29th Oct 2009, everyone is welcome to come along. I'll get there for about 18:15hrs and plan on being around till about 20:00 - Depending on how many people are around and what the feeling is - we might nip around to Ragam ( mostly authentic South Indian food ), a few doors down. There will be a demo for CentOS-5.4 as well! If there is anything specific you might want to see, let me know a bit in advance. The full address is : King & Queens, 1 Foley St, London, W1W 6DL‎ Here [1] is a Google Street view of the place. If you email me, I'll get back with my mobile number - although it should be mostly easy to spot the 'CentOS Guys'. Hope to see you there, then!

rsync followup - what did I run?
by Scott Ehrlich 28 Sep '09

28 Sep '09

Many people have wondered what my rsync syntax was - [as root]: rsync -av /path/to/source me@remote-host:/path/to/dest I'll be adjusting it to adapt to perform incrementals, probably with --update. So, just need to learn why some of the .dotfiles, and other unknown files (unless I ran a diff) didn't successfully copy over. Thanks.

Hi, Is there any working script, similar to deboostrap, for CentOS 5? I have found rpmstrap [1] at RPMforge.. but only works for CentOS-4, and appears that's out of date. thanks! [1] http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/rpmstrap/ -- Santi Saez http://woop.es

Centos 5.3 - kickstart configuration
by Karl Kobata 28 Sep '09

28 Sep '09

Over the last couple of weeks, additional software was installed using the package manager. I would like to get a custom kickstart file created for our system. For this, I would like to get complete list of software installed so they may be add to the kickstart file package selection. Can anyone tell me if this can be done? If it can, please give me instructions? Finally, where on the installation cd's would I place this kickstart file ? Thank you.

Software Raids Questions (I have only ever used hardware?)
by James Bensley 28 Sep '09

28 Sep '09

Hey List; I have no experience with software RAIDs; at work we only use hardware RAIDs and I'm looking to implement, probably a RAID 5 set up at home for a media server however I have a few questions; I have three 1TB drives in various places; one is inside a USB caddy, one is inside my PC and in is inside my existing media centre. Is it possible to add these three drives to another one to give me 4TBs of space in a RAID setup without having to wipe the drives as in my experience which is only with hardware RAIDs, I have normally formatted all the disks before creating the RAID? The thing is, if that is the case I will need to transfer 3TB of stuff somewhere (I have an idea where, if this were the case), make the RAID then transfer it all back but I really don't want to do that as I'm sure you can imagine. Also, if the above where possible; in the future could I then keep adding more drives and expanding the RAID? Note: Obviously I know for this to be a RAID 5 I would need extra drives but the RAID level is undecided, but provisionally I think it will be RAID 5. On a side note, I cobbled together my new media centre running Ubuntu but I might move it back to CentOS, it was originally CentOS and that is my favoured distro, but I would rather not now it is running Ubuntu happily I'm just wondering, is this all achievable in Ubuntu? Granted people on the CentOS mailing list might not know that, but if anyone knows that it is all achievable in CentOS then I would move back? Thanks for reading.

Pbone says there is a package for FC6, and also offers an rpm from sourceforge. That may be a possibility too.
