Hi, I have to install CentOS on a spare partition of a laptop with Windows pre installed. Is there anything I have to watch out for? Couldn't find anything in the wiki or does the installer handle this well without me doing some magic, or so? TIA, Frank.

Hi, how can a specific device driver in CentOS 7 be blacklisted, so that it doesn't load at boot time? We have Infiniband adapters which are not completely supported by CentOS and we want to silence the error messages for the time being. I tried with the files /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and with entries mlx5_core mlx5_ib blacklist

Hi, since I updated my workstation from CentOS 7.4 to 7.5, Firefox and Thunderbird (both 52.8.0, from CentOS repos) regularly freeze (or crash) and cannot be restarted afterwards. Trying to start them results in a "Bus error (core dumped)" (Firefox) and "Killed" (Thunderbird). The system log then shows: kernel: NFS: nfs4_reclaim_open_state: Lock reclaim failed!

Hi, this puzzles me: On one of our developer workstations, all ports with the exception of SSH are closed: $ firewall-cmd --list-all public (active) target: default icmp-block-inversion: no interfaces: eno1 sources: services: ssh dhcpv6-client ports: 22/tcp protocols: masquerade: no forward-ports: source-ports: icmp-blocks: rich rules: $ but still port

Hello, does it in any respect (throughput/performance, cpu load, I/O load, resilience, ...) matter, if one mounts subdirectories of an NFS (v3) export into separate directories or if one just mounts the parent directory? I.e. like this: server:/export/base/a -> /mnt/a server:/export/base/b -> /mnt/b server:/export/base/c -> /mnt/c server:/export/base/d -> /mnt/d

...nt points, but in this case mounting server:/export/base wouldn't give you the same client view of the filesystem tree as mounting each individually if it worked at all.

...pported by Linux/CentOS 5.x or not. Does anyone have this card working with a CentOS 5.x machine? Alternatively: Are there any linux-supported low-profile PCI SCSI cards with 50pin connector which are supported by CentOS 5.x and which you can recommend?

Hi, while kickstarting our virtual machines with PXE we often run into kickstart/anaconda failing with [...] [...] dracut-mount[xxx]: Warning: Can't mount root filesystem [...] dracut-mount[xxx]: Warning: /dev/root does not exist [...] dracut-mount[xxx]:/lib/dracut-lib.sh: line 1030: echo write error: No space left on device Starting Dracut Emergency Shell...

Hi, to install current PC models (with new Intel NICs) via Kickstart/PXE, I wanted to add the newest e1000e-Treiber to initrd.img. With this modified image, the Kickstart kernel crashes with the following error messages: [...] md: Autodetecting RAID arrays. md: autorun ... md: ... autorun DONE. RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 RAMDISK: incomplete write (20480 != 32768) 6062080

Hi, I would like to use the NFSv4 ability to create a "root" filesystem with fsid=0, so that I don't have to refer to the whole path of the exported filesystem when I mount it. However I do *not* want this root filesystem to be mountable by any host. Is that possible and how? E.g Filesystem: /exports/data1 /exports/data2 /exports/data3 /etc/exports: /exports

Hi, on a CentOS 6.4-workstation we have the problem, that Xorg fills up /var/log/Xorg.0.log with AUDIT messages faster than one can read. Within four hours the logfile grew to 160 MB and usually within 1-2 days applications and sometimes the OS crash because /var becomes full. Here a small extract of /var/log/Xorg.0.log: [...] [ 24272.458] AUDIT: Wed Oct 2 15:41:44 2013: 2625: client 28

I need to install asciidoc on my build machine. There is a version for CentOS-5 available at dags rpm site. I have a repository configured for dag like so: [dag] name=Dag Wieers RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux #Also see URL http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/ baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag gpgkey=http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

I recently updated to OpenOffice 3.2 and I noticed that it, and the latest Evolution, seem to be incredibly slow for some operations. E.g., in OO, about half the time when I'm editing something, it takes anywhere from 10-30 seconds for OO to respond to a click on one of the icons or menu items, and Evo is taking forever to format messages. During these times the gnome-system-monitor icon on
