by morovia morovia 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

Hello, I have installed centos using automatic partition. I would like to partition my hard disk to /, /var/, /usr, /home separately. Is it possible now to partition post installation. I also need to have FAT32 partition to share files from between ntfs and linux. Thank you, centoser.

CentOS 4.3 x86_64 xfs module rpm
by Fong Vang 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

The xfs kernel modules at dev.centos.org are very handy. There are a couple of xfs modules in the 4.3 x86_64 directory, but I don't think it's for the x86_64 4.3 kernel (2.6.9-34). The latest ones in that directory is for the -22 kernel (I believe this came with CentOS 4.2).

megaraid problem
by Geert Batsleer 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

Hi, I'm trying to install Centos 4.3 x86 on a PE 1400SC but the install doesn't find any HD's. So then I get the option to load a module, so I choose for the megaraid_mbox module for the LSI LOGIC 4CH PERC but my RAID5 still doesn't get recognised. Had the same problem 2 years ago with FC3 wich was due to the megaraid module wich got obsolete in the 2.6 kernel but somebody filed a bug and a driver disk was provided to solve this percy problem. Also tried installing the new shiney Ubuntu Dapper server release, but the install also suffered from the same problem. Could someone provide a loadable driver disk for centos? kind regards, GB

Swap: typical rehash. Why?
by William L. Maltby 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

I can't resist. Read the thread that was pointed to on lkml. ROTFLMAO. *Real* UNIX addressed these problems long ago. I guess the "Gurus" suffer from NIH (Not Invented Here) syndrome. Given a "general purpose" system, tunability is a must. UNIX, as delivered by USL in such examples as Sys V, had tunables that let admins tune to their needs. A single "swappiness" value is woefully inadequate. Among the tunables were how much memory for cache, how much for buffers, how much for X/Y/Z, high and low water marks for all sorts of memory related stuff and a very valuable attribute bit for executables called the "sticky bit". It is not the "sticky bit" as used now. It said lock this app in memory and never swap it. A variation on that (couldn't keep original semantics with the size of apps these days) would address some of the "responsiveness" issues raised by some. Some admin tunables would address the other issues. The "Gurus" need to learn something my father taught me. "A smart man learns from his mistakes. A wise man learns from the mistakes of others". I'm really smart. :-( And, apparently, so are the "Gurus". To think they have VM this long and no one has thought to swipe these good ideas from real UNIX. And they're still argueing about all that as if it has never been hashed out and addressed before. -- Bill

OpenOffice 2.0 rpms
by Gavin Carr 05 Jun '06

05 Jun '06

Was just wondering if anyone knows of any third-party RPMs for Open Office 2.0 for CentOS 4? Haven't come up with anything via yum or rpm.pbone.net yet, and would prefer not to go the openoffice.org binary installer route if possible.

Remote reboot problem
by Sam Drinkard 05 Jun '06

05 Jun '06

Don't know if this might be hardware or software related, but it seems that every time I attempt to do a remote reboot of the machine, everything shuts down normally, and it never comes back. Just returned from the co-lo site, and when I plugged the monitor in, it had gone to the point of "rebooting" and hung. This is 4.3 on x-86.
