Centos 5 install failed. Could it be the USB ethernet?
by Robert Moskowitz 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

I am installing Centos on a decTOP via ftp, that comes with a generic USB ethernet. I chose the last listed driver some USB ethernet, and the install took off. Got all the way to selecting packages and then it failed. I don't have any SCP stuff to copy the debug too, but it LOOKS like the ftp is failing now. As if the installer lost track of the driver I selected? Well I will try a total CD install next. But any insight on this could be helpful!

I had the same problem (after updating from 4.5). I found I had the wrong repository for rpmforge (el4 instead of el5). I then did a: yum clean all Then yum update worked without the error. > I just performed a fresh install of CentOS 5 64-bit on my AMD PC, added rpmforge > repo, and performed a yum update. > > A list of dependency checking for other apps, then this roadblock: > > --> Processing Dependency: libevent-1.1a.so.1()(64bit) for package: nfs-utils > --> Finished Dependency Resolution > Error: Missing Dependency: libevent-1.1a.so.1()(64bit) is needed by package > nfs-utils > > > A lot of googling hasn't produced a fix. > > Any ideas? > > Thanks. > > Scott -- Dann Farquhar, Computer Department http://www.ITeams.org International Teams Internet: Dann.Farquhar(a)ITeams.org 411 W River Road Fax: [1](847) 429-0800 Elgin, IL 60123 Phone: [1](847) 429-0900

Recommend a USB 802.11 dongle?
by Robert Moskowitz 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

I ALMOST bought a dongle on sale at ecost without checking. There is a driver for the CP Technologies adapter, but not as an rpm, it seems. Madwifi.org says no USB support. Though there is some discussion of using the ndiswrapper driver. So which to use? Anyone out there with any success?

CentOS 5.0 and php-yaz
by Niki Kovacs 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

Hi, I have a CentOS 5.0 LAMP server, and I need to install the php-yaz module to implement the Z39.50 protocol (which handles data exchange for public libraries). I've already done this with Debian (a one-liner: apt-get install php-yaz) and also on Slackware (more complicated: compile Yaz, rebuild PHP). Has anyone here ever done this on CentOS? What would be the most orthodox method to do this? Here's the Yaz page: http://www.indexdata.dk Cheers, Niki

by Robert Moskowitz 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

First off, there is no access into the bios on this unit It will boot from the hard drive or a USB CD. I have a USB DVD/CDRW. The system will boot from it. But if I just press enter to install off the CD, I end up at the askmethod menu. I press the local CD option and am told, no CD. Help?

Quick query about LVM in 4.5
by Drew Weaver 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

Howdy, Does anyone know if anything has changed with the LVM system from CentOS 4.4 to CentOS 4.5? I'm having kind of a funky issue. I've mounted LVM partitions manually quite a few times and I've never had this issue before: --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID d6ksUI-Gha1-vC62-6eQS-2YtX-iQVJ-aMNkQC LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 0 LV Size 146.97 GB Current LE 4703 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors 0 Block device 253:2 [root@localhost /]# mount /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /old mount: special device /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 does not exist [root@localhost /]# I'm not sure why, but when I do fdisk -l I get: Disk /dev/dm-0: 160.0 GB, 160038912000 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19456 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/dm-0p1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/dm-0p2 14 19457 156183930 8e Linux LVM Now, /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 should be /dev/dm-0p2. Is there a new way to 'address' these partitions in 4.5? Thanks, -Drew
