netconfig in 4.92
by Jerry Geis 05 Apr '07

05 Apr '07

After installing 4.92 I wanted to run netconfig. It was not availble. I did "yum install netconfig" and got the package. What should I have selected in the "custom packages" at install time to get netconfig? Thanks, Jerry

Remtoe Install/Anaconda
by Matt Martz 05 Apr '07

05 Apr '07

I have started playing around with remote installs using vnc and kickstart files. However I cannot seem to find a good listing of anaconda parameters. And where I am running into problems is with the display. Say that I am using a kickstart file and I don't want it to establish a vnc connection or to show progress on the console what can I provide to anaconda to do this? When I add text to the kernel line then it goes into an attended install and doesn't read from the kickstart file. If I sepecify nothing for the display it prompts at the console what display to use. And I can specify vnc but I don't always want to watch the automated install. Any suggestions? -- Matt Martz CentOS Mirror Admin mdmartz(a)gflug.net

seamonkey on Centos 2.1 deletes itself!

Well, partly: I've been "converting" a RHL 7.3 system to approximately Centos 2.1, so found it necessary to "rpm -Va" I was more than a little surprised at this: [root@magpie root]# rpm -V seamonkey missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser/content missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser/content/overlays.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser/skin missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/browser/skin/stylesheets.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator/content missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/communicator/content/overlays.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/cookie missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/cookie/content missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/cookie/content/overlays.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/editor missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/editor/content missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/editor/content/overlays.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global/content missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global/content/overlays.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global/skin missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/global/skin/stylesheets.rdf missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator/content missing /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo/navigator/content/overlays.rdf etc Reinstalling the packages did no good: [root@magpie root]# rpm -q --scripts seamonkey postinstall scriptlet (through /bin/sh): # run ldconfig before regxpcom /sbin/ldconfig >/dev/null 2>/dev/null if [ -f /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/mozilla-rebuild-databases.pl ]; then /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/mozilla-rebuild-databases.pl fi preuninstall scriptlet (through /bin/sh): # is a final removal? if [ "$1" == "0" ]; then /bin/rm -rf /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/overlayinfo /bin/rm -f /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/chrome/*.rdf fi postuninstall scriptlet (through /bin/sh): /sbin/ldconfig >/dev/null 2>/dev/null # was this an upgrade? if [ "$1" == "2" ]; then if [ -f /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/mozilla-rebuild-databases.pl ]; then /usr/lib/mozilla-seamonkey-1.0.8/mozilla-rebuild-databases.pl fi fi [root@magpie root]# hm.

any help installing 4.4 for s390 (or s390x) on Z9-BC?
by Kelly F. Hickel 05 Apr '07

05 Apr '07

I should start off by saying that I know a lot more about linux than I do z/series hardware.... I've tried centos 3.3 and 4.4 for s390 and s390x, if it make any difference.... Trying to install 4.4 on an lpar on a z9-BC and having trouble figuring out how to get the OSA adapter working. I've been told that when I ftp-boot from the iso image, I should choose "eth" for adapter type, and enter "0xe38,0xe39,0xe3a" for the addresses. For the additional parameters, I've tried: add_parms,0x10,(0xe38,0xe3a),portname:CHIP00 portname:CHIP00 and just hitting enter (which looks like it's supposed to work with centos 4.4, but not 3.3) After subsequently entering the various IP params (addr, net addr, mask, fqdn, and so on), I typically get messages somewhat like the one below (copied verbatim from the s390x with 4.4 attempt): IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver divert: not allocating divert_blk for non-ethernet device sit0 qeth: loading qeth S/390 OSA-Express driver cat: /sys/devices/qeth/0xe38/if_name: No such file or directory SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device Can anyone shed a little light on what I should be doing? I have a feeling that I'm just not seeing the 800-lb gorilla in the room..... Thanks, -- Kelly F. Hickel Senior Software Architect MQSoftware, Inc 952.345.8677 kfh(a)mqsoftware.com

Hello, I've checked the ML, but I don't find anything related to CentOS 4.5 (4U5) (missed it ?) Does the 4.5 will be out these days, or will it be released after the CentOS 5 ? Thanks, Pierre Bourgin

RE: [CentOS] Problems with SATA DVD+-RW drive [SOLVED]
by Michael St. Laurent 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

On the system I'm testing with the CD-Rom drive is IDE but the softlink at /dev/cdrom points to the scsi device and that's not working with the automounter for some reason. Each time I reinstall I have to delete the soft link and recreate it pointing at /dev/hda instead. > -----Original Message----- > From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org > [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of Jay Leafey > Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2007 4:02 PM > To: CentOS mailing list > Subject: Re: [CentOS] Problems with SATA DVD+-RW drive [SOLVED] > > Jim Perrin wrote: > > > > Nice bit of information here.
