similar to: Booting off and installing from USB cdrom drive

I'm trying to install C6.5 on a USB stick (created using Fedora LiveUSB Creator). The problem is the machine using an Intel ITX board sets the USB stick as a HDD instead of a CDROM. During install, the DVD couldn't find the installer automatically and I must choose the HDD option for it to proceed to network/timezone/storage setup. After the storage partitioning, it will throw an error

Dear All I tried to mount an external cdrom on my CentOS 5 server but un-successful . I attached the device to my USB port and then the followings have been added to my /dev folder : "cdrom -> scd0 cdrom-sr0 -> scd0 cdrw -> scd0 cdrw-sr0 -> scd0 cdwriter -> scd0 cdwriter-sr0 -> scd0" To this end , I tried to mount it as the followings (but it didn't get through) :

I can't seem to get an external DVD drive to show up on an CentOS 7 server. Wondering if it's just missing a driver or if I'm missing something fundamental. It's an external USB device that works fine on my Fedora 21 Laptop, but I never get a /dev/ entry (EG: /dev/sr0) on the server. What can I do to make this thing work?

Hello, I have a problem with older version of anaconda linux installer. I have upgraded kernel in my distro, but, when this anaconda boot with new 3.4.52 kernel, can NOT find cdrom. As far as I understand, this is because the new kernel recognize cd drive as srX, scdX instead of older hdX with 2.6.18. At the moment I can not upgrade anaconda and forced this kernel to recognize it as before. Are

I have a kvm guest running MS-WinV7 on a CentOS-6.5 host. The WinV7 guest was installed from a CD. It installed correctly and was updated and added to an MS Active Domain without difficulty. I was able to do work on it through the virt-manager console and I was able to shut the system down from the console without problem. I cannot get it to restart however. virsh start

I'm currently testing a process very similar to that found here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey And would like to update that doc with my observations once confirmed. Preliminary notes (not all relevant to that specific WikiPage - suggestions for where to put the non-kickstart info?

Hi, Newbie alert: Moderate experience with managing a private headless Debian server, a few weeks experience with Ubuntu AMD64 10.10 and a few hours with Wine, version 1.3.6. Main reason for installing wine is that I want to run Catraxx v7.32, a windows-only CD database program. Installing wine was easy; installing catraxx with minor issues but it runs OK now without problems. Except:

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 4.0.0-1 Severity: normal This is an offshoot of Bug#588888, but is really a separate issue. It appears that with hvmloader, the disk device names presented to the vm must by from a specific set that hvmloader knows how to emulate. Names like hd[a-c] and sd[a-c] work, but sr0 does not. While this makes sense, when you think about what hvmloader is doing, it is

Hi, I'm having an issue with my Thinkpad P70 laptop/workstation. This system is a dual boot, windows 10 pro and centos 7. I have not needed to use the cdrom until now, however the system does not see it in /dev. I know the cdrom works as I can use it in windows 10 and when initially installing centos 7, I installed from dvd media. I'm not sure what to check. I do not see anything related

Hi e, I am normally use gnome and would do the following to make my CD / DVD mount with exec gnome-mount --write-settings --device /dev/sdc0 -o exec What is the equivalent in KDE ? My initial research suggests that I actually have to write a custom udev rule to achieve this. This has led me as far as running udevinfo -q path -n /dev/scd0 udevtest /block/sr0 (the output is below) My

I installed Centos 5.2 on a brand new computer the other day. It has an Asus DVD RW drive in it which I used to boot the netboot disk off of to install the operating system so it found the dvd at that point. Now k3b tells me that it can't find any drives.

Hello Gentlemen, I would like to ask a question about an issue I have with the Centos 6.3 installation. I have installed a Centos 6.3 on a server we used before with 5.4 on Friday. I have created a KS file to let me connect to the server via VNC and have all repos and packages preconfigured. I only needed to partition the hard drive using VNC. During the partition process I selected which

When I load a blank cd into the optical drive on my CentOS-6.7 workstation I am not getting any window or visible mount action on my Gnome desktop. Formerly, when I mounted a writeable media in this drive on this host I would see a nautilus style file browser window open with inducements to add files. When I visit /mnt I see nothing: ll /mnt total 0 My fstab does not seem to have much to say

Hi All, We tested xm block-configure command. Because when the domain image is made, we install it from multiple CDROM. The procedure of the installation is as follows. 1) The HVM domain is started with the CDROM device. 　・configuration file : 　disk = [ ''file:/xen/test/install-test.img,hda,w'',''phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc:cdrom,r'' ] 　boot="d" 2) When

Hi! this is surely a newbie question, so I should know the answer, but I'm fighting with mounting a CD such that filenames are NOT mapped to lowercase (I need to use its on-board tools for accessing files on it while mounted on Centos 6.5, and those tools assume uppercawse, since they assume the entire world runs Windoze.) but despite my best efforts, it keeps being mounted with UC-LC

Hi, I am deciding on what 'RHEL clone' to use and prefer to use one that has a quick release after RedHat releases an update. I checked the repositories, but have not encountered any of the latest errata. Am I looking at the wrong place ? Thanks, Taco
