All systems have at 64MB RAM installed. I had yum problems on Pentium I's with 72 megs of memory -- yum would crash a lot. (This was running cAos 1, not CentOS.) I am surprised that 64 megs is working well for you. Rick

Hi All I been using whitebox 3 for a bit and am take a look at cent 3.3 and 3.1 so far like it, but i seeing with older system 200 to 800 not Intel system (amd k6/2) ( not all of them ) cent comes back in install and till me that its not made for system like this ... whitebox 3 works OK so I'm not sure why and if a can get around this .... See BUG. "That's not a bug, it's a feature!" A bug can be changed to a feature by documenting it.

File permission
by Dominic Iadicicco 30 Nov '04

30 Nov '04

Hello all, I think my file permission are completely screwed up? I created a file called text file called test as root user and have done chgrp on that file to a group called admin. I have added the users ozzie and root to that group. I then did a chmod g+wr on the test file and ozzie can still not write to the file. If I take away read access from the group, ozzie can still read the file. The group permissions have no effect what so ever. If you add or take away permissions from the other permissions, that will effect the test file. What did I do wrong? Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks all. Dominic

Michael, CentOS works fine on Pentium 2's. Many in the world are junking Pentium 2's nowadays, so you can upgrade for very little. Also, in my experience, they tend to be reliable. Rick

Re: installing CentOS on the IBM BladeCenter (Ted Kaczmarek) --__--__-- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 24 Nov 2004 19:52:45 -0500 From: Ted Kaczmarek <tedkaz(a)optonline.net> Subject: Re: [Centos] installing CentOS on the IBM BladeCenter To: centos(a)caosity.org Reply-To: tedkaz(a)optonline.net The IBM Bladecenter is one of the worst abominations I have ever come across. I can see it being a web commerce site in a box, but other that that the thing is a boat anchor. Their Dlink switches are absolute garbage, after 9 upgrades I only have to reboot them once a month now. We tried the OEM Cisco switch, they gave me bad hardware, since their support people didn't know a frame from a packet they were unable to resolve it. Finally we sent the Cisco's back. Our rep finally tells us they are coming out with ethernet pass through, which we purchased. I pray that these work. The management station hangs about once every 2 months as well. Then only thing I have ever come across that compares to this POS is Sun's E10k, the memory latency rendered it useless as well. I am also perplexed how many people got sucked in on these, they where ripped to shreds on slash dot, the over subscription with 4 ports is more than 3 to 1, and qos is only of any use up to 4 queues with the Notrel hardware. Also their ROI numbers are a joke, ( I am not even considering the 150 or so man hours to get it to work at all, at 125$ a pop that pays for 4 loaded 345's) once you add the whole enchillada up, it is much cheaper to use 345's even with 14 blades in a chassis. I also have a hard time putting anything critical on a box that uses Toshiba laptop hard drives and doesn't have serial console. I guess if one doesn't need serial consoles, and real local disk IO and network IO is may be a good solution, but to me its a boat anchor. Sorry for ranting, but I needed this, just got off a bloody battle with a moron vendor who had no clue what a don't fragment flag is. They rolled out a whole bunch of Solaris patches that appear to hard code the DF flag to set.

IDLE still broken
by Rick Graves 27 Nov '04

27 Nov '04

Hey, Sure enough, IDLE 1.0.3 came with Python 2.3, but the update did not fix my problem. I found a entry in RedHat's bugzilla, "Inconsistent input from numeric pad when numlock off", bug 136600. I put one in on SourceForge (where Python bugs are tracked) under IDLE, "input from numeric pad always dropped when numlock off", # 1074333. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=136600 https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1074333&group_id=… I am still coding Python on my Windows box.
