MD5Sum for CentOS-3.1 DVD iso?
by kevin 02 Jun '04

02 Jun '04

Hi everyone, I have a DVD which installs everything just like the 3 cds does, appears to be okay. Haven't tested it much though. I created my dvd iso from the 3 cd iso's. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4e40b1384e81331123b32b967222ccdf CentOS-3.1-i386-DVD.iso ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin Wood South of France. Content-Type=message/rfc822 Content-Description=embedded message Date: Tue, 1 Jun 2004 09:52:17 -0700 (PDT) From: "Mark R. Miller" <markryanmiller(a)yahoo.com> To: centos(a)caosity.org Subject: [Centos] MD5Sum for CentOS-3.1 DVD iso? Hello everyone. Thanks to everyone who made this project possible. This is my first post, although I have looked at the archives. I haven't found an answer to this in the archives, so I thought I would post it here. I've downloaded the DVD iso for CentOS-3.1 from BitTorrent, and I'm leaving my torrent open for another day or so to help out. I see there is an MD5Sum file for the torrent file, but I can't find one for the DVD ISO file itself. Have I overlooked something, or can we get one added to the master MD5Sum file? Maybe BitTorrent takes care of checking the hash, but it would be nice to confirm after a download is done. Here's what I get as the hash for this file. Can anyone tell me if this is correct? 903d537593e634474a013665cf88e499 *CentOS-3.1-i386.dvd.iso Thank you. Mark Miller Mountain View, California

Upgrade install using CentOS-3.1 ISO images
by Bart Schaefer 02 Jun '04

02 Jun '04

Cutting straight to the chase: When, if ever, does the installer offer an option to upgrade an existing installation, rather than wanting to reformat the disks? More details than you may want: I recently acquired a new PC chassis, with no operating system but with a Serial-ATA disk (which I was not expecting when I ordered it). I set the BIOS for legacy IDE mode and installed RedHat 9, then attempted to upgrade the kernel to add SATA support, without much luck. Searching for the SATA driver modules I found CentOS and decided to try it. I downloaded the three ISO images to another PC, burned CDs, and set about to upgrade my RH9. However, the installer never offered me the option of upgrading (keeping my existing filesystems) -- no matter what steps I tried using when starting the installer, by the time it got to the page for disk partitioning it always wanted to start from scratch and blow the existing partitions away. I finally concluded that I hadn't put anything important on the disks during my struggle with RH9, so I went ahead with the clean install. Everything is working nicely at this point, so thanks for that. However, there are some other RH9 systems around the office that may need to be upgraded at some point, and they definitely can't be wiped clean in the process. Is there a way to upgrade from RH9 to CentOS? Any remarks about upgrading from even older RedHat releases?

3.1 on ASUS SK8V SATA problem
by C. Linus Hicks 01 Jun '04

01 Jun '04

This is my first post to this mailing list, although I have been reading it for a while. Please forgive the length of my message. Also, great work! I'm trying to get Centos-3 running on an ASUS SK8V Opteron motherboard in a way that is useful for me. I've had some success, but now I'm stuck on a problem with the SATA driver. Okay, so I got it up on the network by replacing sk98lin with the one from 2.4.26. While I'm pretty confident that's not a supported thing to do, the machine is pretty useless to me off the network. I know I could throw a supported adapter in it, but it works as is. By the way, my intention is to get a native amd64 distribution of Linux running and my preference is that it be a RedHat derivative. I am not able to tell from the cAos web site whether there are any plans to release an amd64 version of Centos. The only reference I see to that platform is in the FAQ and looks specific to cAos. There are amd64 sources on RedHat's web site for rhel3. My experience of Centos so far is of it being i386 centric. So, the problem I hit. I installed Centos-3 using the iso images onto a couple of SCSI drives I have in the system, then got the 2.4.21-15 kernel update and enabled SATA support. Through a series of modprobes, I got it to recognize the drive. However, it didn't find a valid partition table, and the geometry is way off. My SATA disk is a WD740GD, a 74GB drive. Fdisk thinks it is 30MB, 255 heads, 63 sector/track, 3 cylinders. Have I done something wrong, or is the VIA SATA support in this kernel just not gonna hack it? The SK8V uses the VIA VT8237 southbridge chipset if anyone knows about this. Thanks for any help. -- C. Linus Hicks <lhicks(a)nc.rr.com>

What is the update version of CentOS-2?
by jack＠leadershipbynumbers.com 31 May '04

31 May '04

I'm pretty sure that I'm not asking the question correctly, but I'd like to host a database that is supported with RedHat Enterprise Linux 2.1 with Update 2 (Q2 2003), so I'm assuming CentOS-2 fills the bill. However, when I run this application, I get some weird CPU cycling that I can't trace to any specific task. So, perhaps my install is not as current as I think it is. I have run yum for both upgrade and update. Thanks, Jack Jack(a)skillstogrowon.com
