Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to install ash on CentOS 5.4, or just CentOS 5, for that matter? I'm trying to install OpenQRM which requires ash, but ash doesn't exist in the repositories. rpmfind.net als only has an older version listed, for CentOS 4 http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=ash&submit=Search+......
dag wier's repository also doesn't have it. And google didn't yield any results for CentOS 5.4.

hmmm. ash was included with EL3 and EL4, but appears to have been dropped in EL5. its a stripped down bourne shell, you might just try
$ sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/ash
and see if that OpenQRM thing works like that.
or, I found this, http://blog.carlosgomez.net/2009/10/data-center-management-with-openqrm-on.h... which implies the ash el4 rpm will work.

Thanx John,
I already tried soft linking bash to ash, but I think that the installer is looking for ash in the RPM's database, since I'm installing from rpm.
I also read through that article, and that's where I also came to the conclusion that it may not be available for CentOS 5, but wasn't sure.

Not sure but maybe it is used on the install CD... Or is that busybox...?
