More than 1 gcc version?
Hi
CentOS4.2 - Is it possible to have an older version of gcc as well as
the one that ships with this OS? I need to compile aspseek to run on
this distro but it seems to only like older gcc's
any ideas?

SELinux threads, cynicism, one-upmanship, etc.
After reading through the various SELinux threads, I really became quite
perturbed. I mean, really quite perturbed.
As an IT Director (and the entire IT department, currently), if I were hiring
a sysadmin I know for a fact that someone whose first response to a question
on why something doesn't work is 'turn it off' would not get a job here.
Neither would a sysadmin with as much

upgrade problem
Currently we have RH7.3 with compiler gcc 2.96.x
My mission, should I choose to accept it, involves moving
our embedded application to CentOS 4.1 with gcc 3.x
Problem is that about 1/2 million lines of code that gcc 2.96
accepts gives fatal fits to the gcc 3.x compiler from CentOS 4.1
I don't know how many fatal fits, as some disguise others etc.

why was LILO removed from centOS 4.2?
I can't choose LILO as boot loader anymore in the install process? And what is the
advantages in GRUP vs. LILO that are so great that LILO has been deleted all
together?
One big disadvantages when forced to use GRUB is that it is a hassle to make the
disks in a RAID1 bootable.

mkfs.ext3 on a 9TB volume
Hello,
I have:
CentOS4.1 x86_64
directly-attached Infortrend 9TB array QLogic HBA seen as sdb
GPT label created in parted
I want one single 9TB ext3 partition.
I am experiencing crazy behavior from mke2fs / mkfs.ext3 (tried both).
If I create partitions in parted up to approx 4,100,000 MB in parted,
mkfs.ext3 works great. It lists the right number of blocks and creates
a filesystem that fills

Update or not?
After reading all the problems with the x86-64 update, I'm in a quandry
as to update this machine or not. Nothing that I am aware of is broken,
and at least everything I use works. This is NOT a production machine,
but it does have some important software that needs to run twice daily,
and I sure don't want to break things for that. If upgrade is not
necessary, how do I go about

Where to look or command
List,
I've got a process(s) that have been exiting on a signal 11, but not
all the time. I suspect it's memory related, and I was wondering, is
there any way to tell exactly how much memory a particular process has
in use at the point it sigsev's ? I can't sit here and watch top or the
system monitor, but thought maybe something might be saved somewhere
after the fact.

way to keep program in memory
Is there a way to specify that program X should be kep in memory and not
swap it out?
I have a program that takes some time to load and as long as you keep
using it its responsive
but if after sometime its not in use and now I use it it has a slow
response till it gets swapped back in.
The box in question has 1 GIG ram and its not running much else just

server exercising, stressing, and/or testing
greetings
would someone please point me to an excellent server exercising, stressing,
and/or testing program that will run on centos 4?
i want one that will not out and out destroy a machine so to speak...
...meaning testing is one thing, yet pounding a box in the hard drive
department over and above the cause or unnecessarily does not appeal to me.
fyi the box i want to test/stress this time

Query: Centos 4.2 availability
Hi,
Not meaning to rush you folks (you're doing a great job).
But I'm about to install/clone 4 computers with Centos 4.
When can I expect 4.2 to be out (in DVD format preferably)?
As in, is it worth waiting and saving myself the later hassle
extra downloads?
[I don't actually have 4.1 DVD's, just 4.0, so I pretty much have to
download the DVD.ISO anyway]
Cheers & Thanks,
