I am trying using a kickstart file to install CentOS 6.2 into a new virtual machine (the MBR sector of the harddisk is all zero), however I found that the installer cannot go through the harddisk partition. It failed after I chose "Use All Space" at harddisk partition option. The error message is: http://anony.ws/i/bMcTJ.png "You have not defined a root partition (/), which is

I tried moving a PosgreSQL database to an external harddisk due to lack of space on the main harddisks. Not the ideal solution of course but it should work. However, on CentOS 7 the external harddisk is mounted under /run/media and the user. I copied the postgresql database directory and made sure it is owned recursively by postgres, changed the necessary settings in both the systemd unit and the co...

HI Can I install Centos on Segate ST3160812AS ( SATA II ) Harddisk? Asky

I got the have install a SATA HardDisk on the machine recently. But somethings the Disk cannot be accessed. And mesg tells that it is IO error. Is it a hardware problem or system setting problem. Here is the message from dmesg. sd 0:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x00040000 > end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 27099199 > EXT3-fs error (device sda1): ext3_readdir: directory #1687553

Hi, syslinux: I am using pxelinux to install the Linux by network, it works fine. My question is in order to boot the client machine from network, my boot order(which set in BIOS) is: First, network; Second, Harddisk; Third, ...... But when the client machine finished the Linux installation, it will boot from network again and reinstall the OS again. So how can avoid this reinstall issue

Hi! after experimenting for days with xen I was finally able to narrow down why my xen setup is not working properly. When I add a harddisk to the guest system the guest system slows down so much that it becomes impossible to boot. In my hvm testsystem the guest system is a knoppix cd. When booting from the cd without having a harddisk in the guest system everything works perfectly. But as soon

Please help with a problem that is slowly driving me nuts :-/ *Quick problem* Can I kickstart an install by reading all the files from a single partition on the system and installing onto all the spare space on the same drive? I am using `harddrive --partition=sda1 --dir=/` but it doesn't seem to work!! *Longer version* I have a server that has no CD-ROM and that I would like to install a

Hi, I have this strange problem I need some help with.. It appears that I have harddisk noise captured by a Digium TE410P card (Same problem on 2 identical machines..) The machines are two Compaq Proliant DL320 G3's... Does anyone else have this problem.. Kind Regards Claus Futtrup --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Can someone tell me if syslinux will work on a harddisk ? I have a 4mb flash device that plugs into the IDE connector on the motherboard, and i'm trying to get syslinux to work with it, so I can load a Linux kernel and an initrd. I'm not having any luck with it. Then it dawned on me that the boot loader in syslinux might be expecting a floppy drive rather than an atapi hard disk. Any

Hi, Is it possible to attach a harddisk to an ESX node later after creating/defining it? If yes, can anyone tell me how to do it? Regards, Varun

Hello, My challenge is to run Linux on a computer where I don't dare to touch the Microsoft Windows harddisk. Fifthteen years ago would be trick to attach a second harddisk to the computer and boot from floppy disk. In 2011 is the idea to attach a second disk and netboot it. One approach is to TFTP the kernel and append 'root=/dev/sdb1' This E-mail is however to seek advice for

Hi list, I have a SAN attached to a CentOS 4.2 server. I have expanded the size of the virtual disk within the SAN (by adding a new HD to the disk pool) and need CentOS to see the new size (CentOS see it as /dev/sdb). I'm using LVM. Do you know a method for the Volume Group to see that one of its harddisk is now bigger, without rebooting (it's not a problem with a reboot but since

I have an old external harddisk, Toshiba 320 Gb, with a USB connector that I wanted to check for contents. It did not start up when connected and I could not hear the motor spinning. After leaving it in the freezer overnight the motor spins but it is not recognized by my computer. I disassembled it and could see that the head assembly rests outside the disk but when it is powered on, the head

Hi, I've made several attempts to boot syslinux from the harddisk. I have a win 98 startdiskette with syslinux and copybs. I strictly follow the procedure in the syslinux documentation. Yet, the result of the boot is not that linux is starting. Instead, the Microsoft windows screen flashes for a couple of seconds and is then replaced by a Dos prompt. Syslinux is V2.04. The PC is an IBM Aptiva

...When specifying the "nopassany" parameter to hide physical drives, I'm getting different output from ELTORITO.SYS (v1.5, syslinux distro) such that it fails. My intent is a LiveCD functionality with a DOS RAMDISK program taking over as drive C:, meaning either no FAT partitions on harddisks and removable disks (as the DOS kernel enumerates them) or using the NOPASSANY parameter for MEMDISK. Different output: * ISO9660 found: drive E0 with address 0800h (omitting nopassany) * Nothing found: drive 70 with address 0000h (nopassany specified) My expectation was that only floppydrives...

Hi, I once again have a problem with memdisk failing to boot a harddisk image to update my Thinkpad X200s firmware. I extracted the harddisk image from the eltorito type 4 ISO using the isobar tool. Then I added memdisk using this image as initrd to my grub, rebooted and it boots into PC DOS and then freezes (ctrl-alt-del still works to reboot the system). Inside Qemu however it works fine
