When using buildinstall and CentOS 5.2 to create my own CD minus a bunch of unneeded RPM's and plus a few of my custom RPM's I find that the install CD that gets build does not install an initrd which renders the system unbootable. I also notice that when I run buildinstall with the -debug option it says: unpack...

Hello all! I am trying to make a stripped down CentOS 5.2 distro which will all fit on a single CD containing just the base and a few other packages I need. I run buildinstall like so: sudo /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/buildinstall --debug --version 5 --product CentOS --comps /var/www/html/centos/5.2/os/x86_64/repodata/comps.xml --release My-CentOS-5.2 --prodpath CentOS /var/www/html/centos/5.2/os/x86_64 and when I do so I run into the following errors: Expanding package...

Vladimir, I took a *very quick* look at your patch. I won't be able to look at it in more detail until this weekend, but perhaps you can address a couple of concerns: 1. I don't understand the need for LLVMToolDirSlash. This seems like a gratuitous change to me. 2. I don't think the change to CPP.Flags is right. It won't find the LLVM header files 3. Removing the

I have added a few custom RPM's to my CentOS 5.2 CD, dropped a kickstart.cfg file in the root of the CD, and now want to change the isolinux.cfg in the boot.iso so that it will automatically do a kickstart install when the CD boots up. I am using buildinstall to make the ISO. I edited the isolinux.cfg in /isolinux in my CentOS 5.2 distribution tree off of which I am building my ISO. But after buildinstall runs the isolinux.cfg is changed back! Where is it getting the original from? Where should I be changing it to get my modified isolinux.cfg into m...

Hi, anyone to point me URL on initrd.img creating? I have custom kernel and want to create initrd.img for install media. mkinitrd /tmp/initrd.img 2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.hrb -v -f create unusable file for install media. Thanks, David

I have a consulting client who has a Linux based storage appliance which is based on Fedora Core 2. I'll pause here while you laugh... They need to upgrade to something more easily supported and CentOS is the chosen distro. They have the source RPM's for their old system stored in CVS and have a very weird/complicated build system to turn it all into an iso which I am still figuring

...re questions ... I really should point out that if you are modifying the CentOS Linux ISOs and distributing them to others while still calling them CentOS Linux, you are likely in violation of our Trademark rules: https://www.centos.org/legal/trademarks/ Those ISOs (and files) are produced by the buildinstall process. The files in question are created by anaconda-runtime tools. CentOS has Special Interest Groups, where new install images can be built, etc. by group members .. see this for more info: https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup We want users to use CentOS Linux as a platform for other...

Dear All, Can anyone can tell me where i can get the documentation of customization of CentOS distribution CD . How to change the stage2.img ? Is it possible to change the title from default kernel to some other name using ksconfig ?? Thanks a lot Regards juliet -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

...ked, and the original shipping kernel for CentOS contains the same megaraid_mbox driver as the updated kernel that is on my CD. Basically, my CD removed some RPMS, and added others for a custom distro. As far as I can see, the proper kernel files are still present (I'm using an unmodified buildinstall script, and Johnny Hughes' build script for the CD). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to figure out why the new CD says it cannot find an appropriate hard drive to install on? Is there something specific that would be missing like pcitables, etc? Thanks for any advice or suggestion...

Could someone tell me how the kernel used for kickstart (called the BOOT kernel in RH 9 days) is created? How does one generate this kernel using rpmbuild of the src rpm? I'm just trying to undertstand the differences. Thanks for any help.

Hi all: I'm trying to rebuild the anaconda installer for Centos 4.0 (i386) to add some RPMs and do some other things, and I've run into a problem. I've done lots of anaconda rebuilds for Tao Linux 1.0, and I'm bringing those bits forward into Centos 4.0. The all-knowing web hasn't turned up anything useful. It looks like the PXE-loaded kernel unpacked and mounted the

Hi, I've searched all over Google, but couldn't find a proper answer to my needs. I've installed CentOS 5.1 only with the packages I need and then made a few of my own. Now, here's what I need: a) To integrate my self-made packages in a remasterized DVD; b) That the install process of the new version skips package choosing, i. e., when it reaches this stage it just installs

Hi! I would like to ask about current state of Windows port. Is it frozen? It will be cool to know the plans :) Where are a lot of Windows-branches at GitHub. What is the most actual one? The Windows builder looks like turned off, am I right that it is not available currently and where were no builds after version 2.6.5-6? I couldn't find any info about proper environment to build Windows
