Re: [CentOS] Need Dual Boot Installation Help
by Jeff Stacey 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

Adding title Windows XP rootnoverify (hd0,1) chainloader +1 to /etc/grub.conf has always worked for me on every dual boot Win2k, XP, 2k3 / linux boxes I have ever built. Install Windows first then install Linux. You do not need a kernel that has NTFS support and you don't have to play with NTLDR. I know that this goes against just about every Dual-Boot HOWTO you will find on the net. It just works. It has on every dual-boot install I have ever done.

(Which Windows XP Uses by default) I think following the instructions in my previous post should help. > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS(a)centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > -- "No-one dies a virgin.

Compiling lirc on centos 4.1
by Jerry Geis 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

Karanbir, I am still having problems. I grabbed the rpm and installed it. I could not get a /dev/lircd device. I put the lirc.rules in /etc/udev/... even rebooted and still not there. I then grabbed the src rpm, went through the normal stuff and tried to run ./configure and it tells me I need the kernel source installed. I have the kernel source installed. I am just selecting the default of serial when I run ./configure. I would like to do this from the source package - but the kernel source keeps stopping that... Any further ideas?

Default session different for each user.
by duffmckagan 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

Can I define a default session for each user seperately? Or do they compulsorily have to follow the Default system session. If this can be done, tell me what all files need to be edited. -- "No-one dies a virgin. Life screws everyone."

How to prevent loading qla2300.o module
by Alfred von Campe 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

I apologize in advance as this is not really at CentOS specific issue, but I don't know where else to turn. We are configuring some Dell 1850s for a customer, and they have all been configured with a QLogic dual channel HBA. But no storage has been (or will be in the near future) attached to these HBAs. During the boot process (both for the kickstart and after the OS has been installed), there is a 2 minute delay (1 minute for each channel) while the qla2300.o module is loaded and the HBA probes for any attached storage. How can I configure the kernel to ignore the QLogic HBA? It's not that critical for the kickstart process (although that would be nice too). Thanks, Alfred

Compileing lirc on centos 4.1
by Jerry Geis 12 Aug '05

12 Aug '05

I am trying to compile lirc.0.7.1 from www.lirc.org and it is indiacting that kernel source is not installed. I then installed kernel source and ran the ./configure again. Same message about kernel not being installed. ANyone compiled lirc.0.7.1 on centos 4.1? OR want to try downloading it (very small) and try running ./configure. Just select save default config and run configure on the first menu. default should be a serial control setup. THanks, Jerry

BTW, you can run Fedora Directory Server on Windows 2000 itself! You don't have to run Linux, although you could start by using Windows 2000, then synchronizing to Linux later. You'll also need a service on your ADS DC side for the ADS-LDAP synchronization. -- Bryan J.

aacraid strangeness
by Aleksandar Milivojevic 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

I've just had an strange thing with Adapted 2200 RAID controller (with optional battery module installed). Basically, new card, worked perfectly for weeks, several reboots and stuff. Then all the sudden, when I rebooted machine this today, system would simply freeze during boot. BIOS showed the card initialized properly, kernel module was loaded (from initrd) and it found all of the arrays, and then the system would freeze at "initializing hardware: storage" step. Booting in rescue mode would freeze just after kernel was loaded. Opened box, unplugged the card, booted without it, system works. Plugged it back in, and now everything works perfectly again!? Most likely it's not "baddly plugged card". I've visually checked for that, the card was plugged seated properly in PCI slot. Both the motherboard and card are just weeks old, so I would rule out oxydation on the connectors. Anyhow, BIOS initialization was fine, and BIOS utilities worked perfectly. Device driver behaving strangly? Anybody else saw the same problem, or even better yet, knows of an solution ;-) ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
