[CentOS-docs] Installation of CentOS 5.3 on to Hp 2133

Hello. For couple of days ago i was searching google for some howto on
installing Centos 5.3 on HP 2133 but i didnt found any. Since i have
managed to install it on my HP 2133 i wrote on howto as well.

I just need 2 things to be changed / defined better and its installing
ndiswrapper (wich i did but im not so sure that i took right .rpms but
it works), and second one is Installing 7zip on centos wich is needed
for extracting .exe file in which are drivers for wifi. 

Thouse are 2 things wich im not so sure about it since i extracted .exe
file on another Linux computer.

In attachmet are xorg.conf file which works and its partly changed and
step by step on this howto. 

Thnx for your time / help.

                --- Installing CentOS 5.3 on HP 2133 ---

              
   HP 2133 - 120 GB - 1 GB ram - Via C7 1.6 GHZ 
    
   Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
   VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome
9 HC] (rev 01)


1. Install CentOS 5.3 on to your USB flash with this howto from
pendrivelinux.com
  
   http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-centos-5-live-install-via-windows/

2. To boot from USB Flash press F9 at startup and on boot load choose your USB
Flash on
   where you have your CentOS 5.3 LiveCD installed. 

3. Choose Netinstall and install it. 

4. When you have finished installing Centos do not remove USB Flash since
installation has wrote
   grub boot on to your USB Flash. Restart your computer with USB Flash and once
again press F9 to
   boot from your USB. This time you will get CentOS grub meny.

5. When logged in as root to your new installed CentOS 5.3 you need to reinstall
grub to be able
   to boot from your computers drive. 

   As root reinstall grub: 
  
   grub-install /dev/sda

   As well you need to change grub.conf because it will still boot from the USB
Flash.

   vi /etc/grub.conf 
   
   and change all (hd1,0) wich is your pendrive to (hd0,0) wich is your
computers harddrive.

6. Reboot now without USB Flash.

7. By default you will have low resolution. Download ubuntu via drivers from
   
   http://linux.via.com.tw/support/downloadFiles.action

   Choose Ubuntu 8.04 and download chrome9.83-242-u804

   Extract chrome9.83-242-u804

   tar zxvf chrome9.83-242-u804.tar.gz
  
   cd to chrome9.83-242-u804/bin
  
   copy via_drv.so to /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers
   
   cp via_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers

   Now download this modified xorg.conf wich is from SUSE originally and copy it
to /etc/X11

   su -
   cp xorg.conf /etc/X11

   Default language in xorg conf is "se" swedish so you might want to
change that as well.

   --- Panelsize had to be changed to 17 as in som of the ubuntu editions to get
right resolution.

  Logout and login to restart X and you will get high resolution but to big for
display.

  Go to System - Preferences - Screen Resolution and change resolution to
1024x600

8. To get Broadcom bcm4312 to work download / install ndiswrapper and windows
drivers.

   Download:

   dkms-ndiswrapper-1.54-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
   dkms-0.31.04-0.1.fc2.dag.i386.rpm 

   From: 

  
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/dag/redhat/el5/i386/dkms-ndiswrapper-1.54-1.el5.rf.i386.html
  
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/dag/fedora/2/i386/dkms-0.31.04-0.1.fc2.dag.i386.html

   Install bouth .rpms at the same time with Software Installer

9. Download Win .exe driver from:
   
   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HP2133#Wireless%20Networking

   R174291.exe or

   wget http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R174291.exe

   Extract the .exe file with 7zip. 

   Load .inf driver:
  
   su - 
   cd to location where you have extracted .exe file and cd to Driver_JPN
   
   ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf
   ndiswrapper -l
   depmod -a
   exit

10. Enable Network Manager to start by default on boot.

   su - 
   chkconfig NetworkManager on
   reboot

11. After reboot you will be able to load ndiswrapper module. 

   su - 
   modprobe ndiswrapper.

Nice. Do you want to include that into the Laptops section of our wiki?
I need to know what your user account is then.

Don't. Change this please - the better way to install is to activate the
rpmforge repository and install those via yum (so you don't accidentally
get packages for Fedora Core 2 on your system like in your case). See
<http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/RPMForge>

And p7zip also is available from rpmforge, so you could add a word about
installing that, too.

Cheers,
