Problems with some rpms in my local repo

This is perplexing. on a Centos 5.1 box that I am trying to upgrade, I keep getting: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error unknown url type: media> from my local repo. I did a blank system install via http from this server with no problem. For instance, if I limit myself to: yum upgrade yum I get: Loading "priorities" plugin Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Upgrade Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files 0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

I suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? BTW, I did a yum upgrade kernel* and that worked fine. I was going to try to upgrade piece-by-piece, as this is a slow box.

USB not detected after update
by Nicholas 09 Jul '08

09 Jul '08

Hi all, currently on a lenovo R60, after upgrading the CentOS 5.1 I cant detect the USB device any more. The initial installation doesnt have any problems at all. Cannot find solution in forums and bugs either. I am not sure if its a bug or wrongly did an update. The lsusb did not show the device. Things I did: (1) updated to 2.6.18-53.1.21.el5 i686 then to 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5 i686 and here are some of the settings after update (2) Ran lsmod ehci_hcd 33101 0 ohci_hcd 23261 0 uhci_hcd 25421 0 (3) Ran cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 CPU1 0: 204299 0 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 208 0 IO-APIC-edge i8042 2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade 8: 1 0 IO-APIC-edge rtc 11: 2 0 IO-APIC-edge ehci_hcd:usb1, uhci_hcd:usb2, uhci_hcd:usb3, uhci_hcd:usb4, uhci_hcd:usb5, HDA Intel, i915@pci:0000:00:02.0 12: 4782 3521 IO-APIC-edge i8042 14: 6429 11429 IO-APIC-edge libata 15: 27 1370 IO-APIC-edge ide1 209: 27 2661 PCI-MSI eth0 NMI: 0 0 LOC: 204143 204151 ERR: 0 MIS: 0 (4) When I plug in usb disk, the /var/log/messages shows Jul 9 12:35:01 localhost kernel: usb 5-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2 Jul 9 12:35:02 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: Unlink after no-IRQ?

"installation method" (CentOS 5.2)
by Herta Van den Eynde 09 Jul '08

09 Jul '08

I'm trying to install CentOS 5.2 on a Dell PE 1850 via the DRAC 4 card, with CentOS-5.2-i386-bin-1of6.iso mounted as virtual media. At the boot prompt, I hit <Enter>, which should start the graphical installation, but it starts off with a text installation. I am asked - whether I want to test the media, which I skip - what language I want to use - I select English - what keyboard I have - I select us - the installation method - "What type of media conatins the packages to be installed?" I have the choice between - Local CDROM - Hard drive - NFS image - FTP - HTTP but not virtual CDROM. How can I get it to install from the virtual CDROM? (and no, choosing Local CDROM doesn't work). Why is the question there in the first place? It got that far using the virtual media, so why not simply continue using it? Kind regards, Herta P.S. CentOS 5.1 doesn't have this issue, but I just erased the 5.1 isos, so I'm hoping that I won't need to reload them all. -- "Life on Earth may be expensive, but it comes with a free ride around the Sun."

share folder as USB mass storage device
by Bent Terp 08 Jul '08

Hi all! Maybe I'm just being silly here, but I'm wondering if anybody has ever used their computer for sharing files over USB. That is, the computer pretends to be a USB mass storage device. This could be useful for connecting to media players and such that support you plugging a USB harddrive or memory stick. Surely, somebody must have thought of this before :-D regards, Bent

install from USB thumdrive
by Jerry Geis 08 Jul '08

Hi all Is there a procedure to use an 8GIG thumbdrive to copy the centos 5.2 dvd contents to the thumbdrive then run isolinux (or something like it) and be able to use the thumbdrive as the install media? Seems like it should work, however my machine only has syslinux not isolinux. yum provides isolinux does not return anything. Anyway I was trying to get to a point where I can just stick a USB fab in a machine, have the fab setup with the correct kickstart and everything so it just installs. I cant modify a DVD but a fab I could put the kickstart files on and nothing to type. jerry

Drive activity every 30sec
by Robert Moskowitz 08 Jul '08

08 Jul '08

I have a Centos installed on a Hitachi 2.5" drive that shuts off really quickly, it seems. So every 30 sec, the drive makes the sound of an access activity. I have looked trying to find what might be being updated. Swap drive usage is 0 bytes. No activity in /var/log. What might it be and can I do anything to lessen the drive access (improve battery life)?
