Hi There is a problem when creating a domU. I intend to install Solaris N90 on RedHat RHEL5 in paravirtualized(I''ve tried fully virtualized method, that''s no problem). #xm info release : 2.6.18-53.el5xen machine : i686 xen_caps : xen-3.0-x86_32p My steps are as follow(install via NFS): 1 mkdir disk and mkdir Solaris 2 mount /dev/cdrom /disk/Solaris, it tell me that disk

Installing Damn Small Linux and R Following my experiences with Knoppix (described in another mail) I did similar test on Damn Small Linux (dsl -http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ ). DSL was interesting, because it is the smallest yet fully functional version of Linux, hence more suited to older and smaller computers than Knoppix. Importantly, it uses lightweight windowing system (no KDE or GNOME) so

I have a really nice, old Libretto 110. Only 64Mb memory. I want to put Linux on it and have a network monitoring system and a traveling NAS. But all of the NASs have seemed to have grown beyond their original 64Mb size (FreeNAS now needs 128Mb). Only thing I have found is: http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS8289526009.html Talking about Unbutu 6.0 and the 'Server' install that can

I ALMOST bought a dongle on sale at ecost without checking. There is a driver for the CP Technologies adapter, but not as an rpm, it seems. Madwifi.org says no USB support. Though there is some discussion of using the ndiswrapper driver. So which to use? Anyone out there with any success?

Hi, I often have to deal with relatively obsolete hardware in schools, public libraries, small town halls, etc. I still have a handful of CentOS 5.x installations around for these, but I wonder what CentOS 6.x desktop specs are, e. g. the minimum requirements (in terms of CPU and RAM) to reasonably run it. Will a battered first-generation P-IV with 512 MB RAM be sufficient? How much RAM does

Can anyone recommend a client / phone that runs on Windows XP, with either a sound card or some other hardware? Ideally free, but does not have to be. Thanks...

Hi! I have a PXE Server witch uses a the simple menu system. Is all working great also with submenus. What i want is a entry in the pxelinux.cfg/default file that can load a non-menu cfg file for the pxelinux.0. The background is, that i have here a DamnSmallLinux that is booting from PXE. it has a own cfg file but without the simple menu system (with F1-F2-F3 and a logo.16). If i move

Hi, Does anyone know of a good guide to installing distros to usb flash drives ....? I read this one but its making much sense http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/talk/node/86 Do I need to change drives in this manner for it to work ? Dave T.

Hi, The bios is not able to boot from usb, but only from floppy. I want to boot an Ubuntu-installation from usb. The iso-file was moved with usb-creator to the usb-stick. I have got a boot-floppy, which starts an DamnSmallLinux usb-stick. But this bootfloppy doesn't start the Ubuntu-usb-stick. Which parameters in syslinux.cfg I must change to start Ubuntu-Linux? There are the following

Le 24/03/2015 08:34, John R Pierce a ?crit : > I'd be looking at something like TinyLinux or DamnSmallLinux on those. I don't want anything else than CentOS for the job. I used to install my own heavily customized version of Slackware on these machines (http://www.microlinux.fr/slackware/), but this was a bit of a hassle to maintain. CentOS 5.x is running perfectly well on these

Hello list; Im trying to install a paravirtualized Debian, but as an absolute newbie i´m, i don´t know what to put when the wizard asks me to give an "Install Media URL".

Sorry if this was answered before. It''s hard to figure out what keywords to use in order to narrow the search. I''m looking into running Solaris 10 as a guest under an OpenSolaris dom0 host. Is this feasible, and if so, can someone point me to the best "howto" to reduce the frustration level? Otherwise, is there a better host OS to do this under? Thanks, Gary

Hi list! I'm trying to make a hd image with can boot from memdisk over PXE. So this is what i did: - Created a new VM [VMware] -Installed DOS on a 100MB HD from a floppy -bootet Linux over PXE [DamnSmallLinux] -in terminal: dd if=/dev/hda of=dos.img This image [dos.img] isn't working! Memdisk loads the Image and boots the HD! The error message is something like this: I/O Device

Hi, Could any one please tell me a proper way to access my DomU using VNC. I saw a thread related to this topic, but that did not seem to have the right thing. I am using Xen 3.2 (compiled from source) on top of FC8-64bit. I am using a jailtime.org file system image for FC 64 bit as my Dom U. Thanks DM

Solaris 10U3, latest kqemu, qemu-0.9.0-CVS plus TAP patch. I''m aware that a fair amount of "rootish" access is required for the TAP and bridge stuff, and I''m working on that. As kind of a secuirty thought, I figured I''d use setfacl to give myself access to the /dev/kqemu device instead of leaving it mode 664 or 666. However, that didn''t work.

I may not agree with everything they say, such as ISPConfig (I prefer webmin) but this tutorial offers a "step by step opportunity for newbies". Does this indicate that CentOS is now a "mainstream" distro? (Technically speaking its not CentOS 4.3 but CentOS 4 Update 3 but we are not into semantics).

if i do an rsync to the current directory, how come the parent directory isn't created? I normally just get my files spewed into the current directory, eventhough I am trying to transfer a directory. Something like this rsync -avp host::module/ . -- Jason G Helfman Network Administrator

The background noise is unacceptable. I'll have to stick with 32kbps mp3s eventhough the files are 70% larger.

Hello, I've purchased a new dedicated CentOS 6.0 / 64 bit server and have 2 minor problems please: 1) The "hostname" is reported as CentOS-60-64-minimal at CLI - eventhough I've edited /etc/hosts and changed the 2nd line: 127.0.0.1 localhost 176.9.123.123 preferans 2) Why is /etc/localtime a regular file? Should I maybe rm /etc/localtime ln -s
