GRUB Bootloader
by Ulrik S. Kofod 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

I installed CentOS 4 Beta on an ATA disk to have a look at it, and on the same computer I have a Windows installation on a SATA disk. In the CentOS installation process it could see the operatingsystem on the SATA and everything looked good, it said something like "Other... /dev/sda" (not quite sure, it looked right so I didn't really take note of it). Now when I want to boot the windows installation is is attempting to boot from /dev/hdd, and that disk isn't even there? I had CentOS 3 on the ATA disk before and there it did the same thing, it's not a big problem as I just have to hit Esc and select the SATA before it starts booting, but shouldn't this be corrected somewhere? brgds Ulrik -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by OpenProtect(http://www.openprotect.com), and is believed to be clean.

Not for lots of people. ------------------------------------------------ Hello, Well, I think so , too. If CentOS changes its release policy, I might use a completely different Linux distribution like Debian. A existance of a clone of a so-called prominent linux distribution vendor is very important, I think. Regards.

Re: [Centos] no kernel upgrade on 3.3
by Matt Bottrell 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

Dave, Is there a new kernel available for the X64 platform? Can you see this in the repo? It might explain why it hasn't upgraded. The i386 may have been the only updated kernel...

Re: [Centos] no kernel upgrade on 3.3- more info

Based on that.. they are different architectures.... Is there a new kernel for both architectures?

Poll: what features are you lusting for in v4
by Troy Engel 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

While we're waiting on the keebler elves to make the new CentOS 4, what feature(s) are you most lusting after in RHEL/CentOS 4? For me: - official Mysql 4!!! (man does this make me happy) - official Subversion ..are my top two, they will make me a happy camper for so many projects. :) Sure sure the 2.6 kernel is nice, but that super-patched 2.4 kernel on v3 seems to work quite well too... -te -- Troy Engel | Systems Engineer Fluid, Inc | http://www.fluid.com

ProFTP -> vsFTP Configuration Options
by Forrest Samuels 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

I am moving from a server from running Red Hat 7.2 (with ProFTP) to Centos 3 (with vsFTP). There is a setting in ProFTP that lets me set the default ftp login directory for a specific user and I would like to do the same with vsFTP. The reason being is I have a 'webadmin' user that I use for uploading web content. I am thinking I could make the home directory of the webadmin /var/www in the /etc/passwd file but I would rather it just be for FTP and leave the login home as /home/webadmin. In ProFTP this was set in /etc/proftpd.conf like so: DefaultRoot / webadmin DefaultChdir /var/www webadmin Does anyone know how I can do that? I would like the settings for the other users to work as they are now. I have been looking at chroot_list_enable, and chroot_list_file files but I don't think that is quite what I am looking for (They are both commented out by default). I may be wrong. Thank you for any help! -Forrest

Badly posted "Oracle 9i, 10g, Apps 11.5.9" message.

Your message showed up in middle of md0/fstab thread!! Yup, I've already been chastised for this once on the list (did you miss that post?) and I apologized privately via e-mail to the person who pointed out my mistake. I guess that's not enough, so, for you, and everyone else: I'm sorry. It won't happen again. BTW, thanks for the feedback I did get on 9i and 10g installations on CentOS. Are there any Apps 11.5.x lurkers out there, or has nobody actually tried this? I intend to at least attempt it and will post an update (in a _new_ thread) with my findings. This response should be in a new thread unless I really do have my head up my ass. Thanks, Stokely Boast

upgrade FC3 -> CentOS-4.0-Beta
by Terrel Shumway 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

I have two boxes I want to upgrade hedwig is in a DC in Texas so I have no physical access. installed RHEL-3.1 adhoc upgrades with WBEL-3.1 packages (before I discovered yum and apt-rpm) dist upgrade to FC2 using apt-rpm rock-sand is a local development box installed FC3 on one partition installed FC2 on one partition I want to get both machines running CentOS 4.0 rock-sand is my practice machine, so I want to pretend I don't have physical access. In CentOS-3.4-Server.iso there is a pkgorder.txt with a list of the packages in (I assume) the order they should be upgraded. But there is no such file in the CentOS-4.0 distribution. Should I just use the same order but with the new version numbers? What issuses has anyone had with the move to udev?
