similar to: CENTOS 3.5 (AMD64) NFS install issue

My hardware is Sun V65x servers, (6GB RAM/2xXeon3GHZ/36GB SCSI disk). I have NFS repositories of Centos 3.1, Centos 3.4, Centos 4 & RedHat 9.0 ISO distros set up. I use boot floppies for each o/s with the same kickstart file which is of course altered to point at the desired distro. With Centos 4 I have to use a boot CDROM, of course, rather than floppy disk. I wish to set up servers with

Hello, I'm doing an unattended CentOS 5.3 install in a virtual machine vmware. I'm redirecting output to a serial console because production boxes won't have monitors. I'm getting to the point of doing the post installation then the box freezes. The only command i have in %post is yum -y update. I'm not getting no output. Suggestions appreciated. In the commands section reboot

I can install R with sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install r-base this is not my problem, and indeed, not my question. my question was how could I share the resulting R installation over NFS? Do I have to export every location where apt-get installs a component or can I force apt-get to place the installation in a certain location? On 8 November 2017 at 17:37, Ista Zahn <istazahn at

We operate a samba('18p10) server accessed by WIN3.11, 9x & NT4 clients, security=share. Uptil now, the NT clients have been pre service pack 3 & therefore sent cleartext passwords. Post-SP3 we need to enable encrypted passwords for the NT clients whilst preserving cleartext for the rest. For various (political) reasons, we cant' get the clients to use the registry hack to

Hello, Does anyone have a guide for setting up an nfs server for unattended deployment of centos5? Basically what i want to do is boot a system from CD media, pass a boot parameter nfs, and ks= options then walk away, the box goes out to the nfs server, finds the kickstart file, reads, and does it. I've got several machines and i'd rather not do manual installs. Thanks. Dave.

hi all, i want to share an R installation from a master node to several compute nodes via NFS. all nodes run ubuntu 16.04. I tried building R from source but hit a wall several times because of missing dependencies. So I am looking for something that uses the usual apt-get install proceedure, but would place the installation in the non-standard location. For context, right now I would have to

We have Xeon IA32 dual-processor servers running Centos 3.5 in an HPC batch-only compute grid configuration . We have yum update operating automatically with default updates being applied weekly. Because of the workload pattern of long-runing jobs, the servers tend to stay up without a reboot for very long periods. Recently, yum installed an updated kernel 2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp; when we got

Hi! Did anyone encountered problems with nfs after the latest updates? I started to have problems like nfsvers=3 no longer working in fstab or messages like : RPC: Program not registered Thanks! Adrian

I have successfully set up a very nice kickstart install with the i386 version of CentOS 4.3 and it works great. I am using a custom kickstart script and the kernel and initrd from disc1/images. But when I try to duplicate this for a 64 bit setup (changing paths in my tftp server, ks.cfg, etc to point to the 64 bit stuff) it successfully tftp's everything just as it should (tethereal

Dear R-users, is there any object-type or routine/function in R which can handle unequally spaced time-series data? I know that there is the library OSWALD for S-Plus, which is able to do so, but I was not successful in running it under R. Does anyone can help? Thank's in advance!

Hello, I tried to make an automatic install bootable CD, with a kickstart file. I use this command to create my CD : sudo mkisofs -v -r -T -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -J -o InstallCD.iso -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -hide-rr-moved . I copied all the contents of the CD #1, on a InstallCD dir, on copied my ks.cfg file into the isolinux directory. When I

Hi, I'm trying to deploy some non-linux OS via pxe and I was thinking to just launch CentOS in RAM and then run dd or qemu-img or something like this in order to complete the other OS install via template imaging. My first idea was to build a custom CentOS livecd and use that in combination with pxe kernel parameters, but perhaps there's a better way to do this. Ideas? Thanks, Lucian --

Dear Experts, Sorry about taking shortcut and asking everybody... My question is: how do you avoid "firstboot" screen in latest CentOS 7.3 kickstart. I have installed about a dozen of CentOS 7 (none of which was 7.3) with that kickstart file. None of them ever went to firstboot screen on first boot. Now after kickstart installation of CentOS 7.3 it goes into firstboot screen showing

Dear Experts, Could somebody point to kicstart HOWTO specific for CentOS 7? On CentOS 7 I somehow am always given human intervention questions about drive which defeats unattended ks install. <rant ??> I'm doing kickstart installations for quite some time, normally I was just installing system when new release comes, and am basing kickstart file on anaconda-ks.cfg - with some

Hi list, I'm fiddling with CentOS 5.5 and kickstarted installations via cobbler. In my environment I need to install using the HTTP protocol over a proxy. Does anyone know why the URL command doesn't support the --proxy method? I get an Anaconda error message stating that this method is not supported. Even though i found out about that method in documentation. Relevant section in my
