search for: mediacheck

I am using a kickstart centos 1503 file. For some reason I am getting a mediacheck even though I do not have mediacheck in my kickstart file. Any ideas why? Something change on that? Jerry

I used google but did not come up with anything current to solve my problem. I have not tried any other search engines yet. There is not a search for the CentOS list so I am creating a new post. I have tested the CentOS 5.2 and RHEL 5.3 CD's and they passed. I had to use linux mediacheck ide=nodma to get them to pass. The newest releases seem to most times fail with just linux mediacheck. I have tried linux ide=nodma and linux text ide=nodma after trying linux and linux text Anaconda fails on both CentOS 5.2 and RHEL 5.3 in all cases. The system I am trying to install on is runn...

I've installed DSL linux -- no problem My expertise is in the HP3000 (non windows, non unix) environment. When I boot from Centos CD#1 I get a Panic error..... I'm thinking hardware is the issue so I try a different machine, same thing. I've tried 'linux rescue', 'linux mem=256' still the same error, which is mostly unreadable to me because most all the messages roll

I thought I'd be clever and buy a DVD for 5.2 from LinuxOnline.biz. Well, just got around to trying it with the above results. Does the error mean I have a 'bad' DVD disk image? Please advise. Thanks.

...of Ram, 18G SCSI HD. I run this at home so this is no critical server, unless you ask my girls when I have it down, I have been debating on upgrading to Fedora until I started looking at CentOS. I have download the ISO and burned them with X-CD-Roast. Here is my question: I tried running the mediacheck on the cd's and it would lock up right before the media check screen appears. I have googled and tried the ide=nodma and other options, but to still no avial. I also ran memtest86, now here is where the kicker is. It did show there was some errors, and these I will check out. But I then...

Hi to all, I am trying to install CentOS 5.5 as VM on a KVM server running Ubuntu 10.04. The Problem: the installer does not find the iso image. (Direct copy from website downlod.) I can start CentOS from the iso and can even do some disk checks. But when I go further the installer says "no CDROm found". Pretty weird. I tried all CentOS 5.5. image available (Live CD, net install, bin 1

Folks, As much as I hate to, I feel I need to post my long story and ask help. Shortly after the release announcement, I kicked off rtorrent and downloaded the CD and DVD images. Since my cable provider does my "throttling", I disabled throttling and shared for several days, "returning" several GBs at no objectionable loss I could discern. While that was going on, I used

...e option to do a media check pops up... however as per my original email - there will be no keyboard/mouse/monitor attached during install... so I can not press the "skip" option. Now to get the VNC install to work, I am using boot options.... I was reading up on it, and there is a "mediacheck" boot option - however my understanding is that if added to the boot options it forces a media check to happen. There seems to be no option to specify "no" to the media check. Does anyone know of a way to disable the media check? This way it ensures that the cd boots direct into a v...

I just download CENTOS 5.4 DVD ISO X86_64 version from internet. I tried to install it on DELL server and get following error message before RPM start install: parted_1.8.1-23.els.x86_64.rpm can NOT open anyone know why? Should I download it again from any good site? If I install CENTOS 5.3 and use yum update, will it go to CENTOS 5.4? Thanks.

...his is the i386 version of CentOS 5.3) or some parameter on the install that I haven't tried (and I've tried about all I have found or remember). I would appreciate any help. What I've done so far: At first I thought that the CentOS 1of6 disk must be bad (couldn't even run a mediacheck) and emailed the vendor. Then it occurred to me that I could perhaps download and burn disk 1of6 and use that to get the install started. (Up until my attempts at F8 I had not had the capability to burn a CD. While trying with F8 I bought a used "intel inside" computer with a broke...
