similar to: Can't install Centos with DVD on KVM.

I have created my own install DVD with a custom kickstart file and modified the isolinux.cfg file to allow the system to boot off of the hard disk as the default mode. It will also use my kickstart file if I select it. Now I would like to make the system not eject the DVD after reboot. The machines I am installing on do not have a motorized tray that can automatically pull the DVD back in when a

As subject says. I just noticed that Anaconda allows x86_64 CD/DVD to be used to install i386 system (using network installation, of course). This is basically broken. For example, yum will believe that it is installed on x86_64, not on i386. So when you do for example yum update, it will try to install x86_64 packages on i386 system. Which isn't going to fly, since installed

Hi all, I'm installing Centos 5.0 (fresh install) x86_64 via NFS. I've downloaded just the DVD iso via bittorrent, but when it starts the graphical installation phase an error message appears telling me that anaconda can't find the CD iso in the remote server. Seems that's looking for Centos-5.0-x86_64-bin-1of7.iso, I'm downloading it right now to go ahead but... I think

I am attempting to update to 7.4 using the DVD I get these errors(truncated list) Error: Package: libgpod-0.8.3-14.el7.x86_64 (@epel) Requires: libusbmuxd.so.2()(64bit) Removing: usbmuxd-1.0.8-11.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda) libusbmuxd.so.2()(64bit) Obsoleted By: usbmuxd-1.1.0-1.el7.x86_64 (c7-media) Not found Error: Package:

I've found discussion about this in list archives, but no final answers. Many helpfull people wrote in the past how to avoid creating DVD (install from network, install from disk, boot this way, boot that way). But, I do need DVD, no way around it. No network, no USB, no floppy, no anything. Placing files on hard drive not an option. Just a DVD-ROM. By Googling around, I found some

NFS install from a loop-back mounted DVD image fails for me when it actually tries to start the RPM install process. I come to the point where anaconda checks the package dependencies, then it tells that the install process will be started in some minutes and the last thing I see is a message similar to: Preparing transaction from install media. Then this message box disappears and the install

Hi folks. I maintain a bunch of centos based machines that are built using a somewhat stripped down (limited number but mainly stock rpms) centos distro. The installation process is plain anaconda stuff with a kickstart file on the root of the DVD/iso. The current hardware and media i'm using is DVD based. On machines that have internal DVD drives (all IDE CD/DVD drives), everything

I don?t do unmanaged installs that often, but last I tried, if you boot off and install from a CD/DVD it doesn?t bring up the network by default. If you boot off the network (or use the virt-install -l URL method)

Well that didn't work. I got a bootable dvd out of it but the centos installed did not detect the media as having the installation files. It asked for a cd instead of recognizing the dvd. Winiso cannot handle dvd's..:( Anyone have a way to make the centos installer realize all its files are on the dvd instead of looking for three cd's? -- My "Foundation" verse:

I'm having problems trying to install CentOS as a KVM guest despite following the wikis and howtos. The problem is that most of the instructions skip the part that happens after virt-install... It seems that something blindingly obvious happens if nothing goes wrong and most instructions continues from the OS installation screen. However, when I try this, I get a blank console that says

I apologise if this is not the appropriate list for the following issue, but... Is it possible to upgrade the Linux kernel on a kickstart CD? I've changed the vmlinuz and initrd.img files in the isolinux directory from the distro's ISO image; so kernel 2.6.32-504.3.3.el6.i686 now boots from a DVD, and loads the appropriate modules and firmware from the stage 1 initrd.img. However,

Guys, I was thrown a cheap OEM-server with a 120 GB SSD and 10 x 4 TB SATA-disks for the data-backup to build a backup server. It's built around an Asus Z87-A that seems to have problems with anything Linux unfortunately. Anyway, BackupPC is my preferred backup-solution, so I went ahead to install another favourite, CentOS 6.4 - and failed. The raid controller is a Highpoint RocketRAID

I would like to how how I can take the CentOS 4.4 Server Cd for example and modify the ISO to put on my anaconda-ks.cfg file and then modify the kernel parameters to automatically load the anaconda-ks.cfg file so that I can create a CD that I just stick into my machine it will format the drive, install the basic configuration I like without asking any questions. I need to install like 20

Hi! As far as I can see there is no kvm in the base repository but the older version 36 in CentOS-Extras. Version 83 that belongs to 5.4 is only found on the install DVD and CD-Set. So it's different when installing kvm later with yum which results in kvm-36 than choosing 'Virtualization' on DVD install that installs kvm-83. It's also a difference between installing from network

Hi, Is is possible to use kickstart file to install rhel from dvd drive? Mainly idea is to clone one anaconda.ks file to about twenty machines.? examples? ftp/http/dhcp is not possible due to network limitations. -- Eero

Hi all! One of these days I'm going to upgrade my centos 5.7 box (which is currently configured with raid-1 on two drives) to 6.x. i've been given to believe that I should be able to do a fresh install on top of the existing raid setup, i.e., without having to re-create the raid array, but just use the existing setup. and somewhere in the last few days (in this list I think) someone
