Hello.
I just fresh-installed 5.3 onto my laptop, and I have a problem trying
to get wifi working. Be aware that I have 5.2 on it, and did the same
process, and it worked great!
I'm using http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/WirelessAR5007EG -- as
I did for 5.2. The problem arises in section 6:
[mpk@a3680 madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3968-20090402]$ make
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.el5/build: No such file or
directory
Makefile.inc:66: *** /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.el5/build is missing,
please set KERNELPATH. Stop.
[mpk@a3680 madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3968-20090402]$ ls
ath BuildCaps.inc hal kernelversion.c Makefile.kernel
README release.h THANKS
ath_hal contrib include Makefile net80211
README.dfs scripts tools
ath_rate COPYRIGHT INSTALL Makefile.inc patch-kernel
regression SNAPSHOT
Q: 'make' can be run as $ - correct?
In another terminal:
[root@a3680 tmp]# whatprovides build
-bash: whatprovides: command not found
[root@a3680 tmp]# rpm -q gcc gcc-c++ make kernel-devel
gcc-4.1.2-44.el5
gcc-c++-4.1.2-44.el5
make-3.81-3.el5
kernel-devel-2.6.18-128.1.6.el5
I haven't a clue what's going on here, or how to fix it. Google's linux
SE couldn't find any hits.
Hello:
I followed the instructions here:
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/ch02s04s01.html
to put isolinux on a usb drive. When I boot from the usb drive,
the installer comes up and I can do a network install. I have
to say that is very impressive!
But, since I have a 4GB usb drive, I am thinking I can
load the rest of the installation onto the usb drive
so I do not have to use a network install.
I searched the Internet but could not find any instructions
on doing that.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Neil

I just updated kernel manually last evening: that is, directly using rpm and it did update the grub.conf. Well, you can always manually edit the grub.conf file, right?
BTW: I managed to install 5.3 on the very first generation MAC PRO (xeon 2.66, XT1900) last weekend with old kernel: I took a detour in order to install it directly from CD iso. The system Hung several times and the DVD rom was NOT recognized. However, after updated to the newest kernel last evening, the DVD ram recognized and it did NOT hang any more: at least for about 6 hours.
Cheers!

I'm curious why CentOS contradicts its own (or, actually RH's) netfilter
default policy.
On http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/IPTables , at the end of
section 1, it's stated that (generally) the default policy for INPUT is
to DROP. So, why is it set to ACCEPT?
Btw, Fedora is also this way.
I bet it's availible in rpmforge. Not sure, but that might of been where I find it.
