Hi, One of my servers in a IDC in another country mysteriously went down this morning, and when I contacted the IDC, I was told that XEN doesn't boot up, as follows: [QUOTE] This is error message on the screen " Error 19: Linux Kernel must be loaded before initrd" Server is currently up with 2nd kernel. Please check the grub.conf. [/QUOTE] Looking at grub.conf, I see the

Hi all, I try to install CentOS 4.3 for X64_64 on a new Dell PowerEdge 2950. I have two problems: 1. After booting from CD I pressed 'return' to start installation (BIOS-support for USB-keyboard works). After probing the hardware my USB-Keyboard is not working anymore. Dell removed ALL PS/2-Interfaces so I have to use USB. When I start installation with 'linux noprobe' the

I tried installing with several options (noacpi noapm; noprobe; noprobe skipddc noacpi noapm nodma). Always I get the same error. BUT this is not in fac a CentOS problem at all, because I get the same error always when I boot from hd (Fedora Core), IF there is a CD in the CD-ROM drive. (I tried with CentOS 1/4, CentOS 2/4 and a HP printer software CD.) It must be something with the CD drive!

Posted a similar version of this to the RHEL4 list... I''m having trouble getting CentOS 4.2 installed on a DL140G2 with two SATA drives. I am doing a PXE install, so I do not have a CD-ROM drive in the system and this appears to have the side-effect that both SATA drives are caught by the Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver before ata_piix can catch it. As soon as I hook an IDE CD-ROM

Hello list, I am trying to use the console to setup my machine. During boot I am able see the syslinux boot prompt on the serial console *and* the monitor, but I can not use the console keyboard. I can only use the keyboard that is connected on the machine. After the kernel is loaded, the console keyboard starts working, but, this does not help me much, since I still need to use the keyboard

I will install CentOS 4.3 and downloaded the driver disk from Dell for RedHat Enterprise Linux 4: Description: Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller 5 Device Driver for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0, X86 & X86_64 I saw a few minutes ago that the driver disk is extracted within /tmp/ramfs/DD-01. Therfore I know that the network is working correct. I will try to extract the module and insmod/modprobe

I have the same problem on the install disks and on the Live CD: The computer locks as soon as the Xserver starts. I end up with a blank screen (color varies) with a moving mouse cursor. Nothing else. Nothing appears on the screen. Keyboard and mouse are inoperative. Even Alt-SysRq-R doesn't work. Only way out is the reset button (or maybe SSH, but I don't have another machine handy

Hello all, I got this tiny problem, I bought an Asus m2n-vm hdmi mobo two weeks ago and it seems not to be fully working under centos amd64(4.6, 4.9, 5.0, 5.1) or even redhat EL 5.0 i386, amd64, I tried to install centos and redhat EL using the linux dd and linux noprobe commands to load driver disk from nVidia guys but it doesn't detect the HD I'm using their diferent versions of the

I hope the CentOS people don't mind me cross-posting for their input. I've just done a clean, text-mode minimal WBEL4 install on an IBM Netfinity 4500, essentially the same hardware as an xSeries 340. The install went fine but now the box will boot, run through the initrd init sequence, perform its switchroot then hang here... SELinux: Initializing. SELinux: Starting in permissive mode

I have a fleet of 2970s and we are upgrading the hardrives on the motherboard SATA ports (A/B not the PERC backplane) when a "detecting hardware" is performed the system crashes, reboots and gives an E1422 error code (useless video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhyMeUHJar4). We narrowed it down to a motherboard BIOS issue, if we remove the SSD or add noprobe to the kernel the

I am trying to install 5.2 on a new dv7z hp laptop. I use "linux noapic nolapic iommu=off " and I get a kernel dump on rtl8169. I dont need the network to install? how do I ignore the rtl8169 to install. I tried noprobe and then it doesnt recognize my SATA HD controller and I dont know yet which driver to select as I cant do an lspci to see??? THanks, Jerry

If you specify noprobe at boot can you then manually specify to load the 8139too network module? If so how? Thanks, jerry -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/attachments/20051231/f5a89ead/attachment-0001.html>

Dear R-helpers, I have split a dataframe into a list with five elements, with the following code: > datalist<-split(data,data$UNIT) I would now like to run some code (below) on each element of the list to extract rows from the list elements; then I would like to rbind the extracted rows into a new dataframe containing all of the extracted rows from all of the list elements. I don't

hi, on centos 5.x and fedora 6 there are hdX and sdX while from fedora 7 (and probably centos 6.x) there will be only sdX. is it possible with the latest centos kernel to use the same ata_piix driver to handle all disk (ie. both pata and sata) so we've only sdX disk devices like it's the current setup on newer fedora release. we try to disable ide0=noprobe etc. which really disable hdX but

Hiya, Just joined the list and started using pxelinux. Very cool product!!! I searched the, 8+ MB, archives looking for multicast entries. I know that the pxelinux page says that the support of mtftp in pxelinux isn't in the works but I'm not sure how old/relavant that comment is. I have noticied some comments from H.P.A. describing the difficulties in doing MTFTP. Are there any plans to

Ok, syslinux is what it is, and I love the way it just works. I looked up linuxBios and found what I was looking for. A project in 2000 called "LOBOS (Linux OS Boots Linux OS): Booting a Kernel in 32-bit Mode? It looks like this would do what I need, but I can't find any working code. I like the Idea of booting a simple fail safe system and restarting a production kernel. Yes,

Hi again, thanx Jeremy, the pam-devel package was missing to compile pam_winbind... it was tooo obvious :-( After my 5th day trying to get samba to talk to my W2k-Server, I still have problems! I just want samba to do authentication with the w2k-server's help and without unix-useraccounts. So far, winbind is up and running, and fter have the user switched to Administrator with wbinfo

Hello All. I have a dell optiplex 320 that I can install centos5 on using pci=nomsi. That seems to be the only way. After the install grub loads but thats about as far as it gets. It looks like a BIOS bug to me, but I just don't know. I left it sit for a few minutes and it just had the echoed boot params on the screen. I've tried booting with noapic nolapic apm=off acpi=off and noprobe

Hi! I'm having trouble installing CentOS 4.4 to a system with Intel's DQ965GF motherboard. The installer hangs (even with noprobe option). I'm wondering if someone has succeeded with this type of installation? Is the only choice to install the OS in another, older setup, update it and move the disks to the DQ965GF setup?
