similar to: CentOS 3.4 on Compaq Proliant

Greetings, Can anyone relate experience(s) installing CentOS on Compaq rack mount servers units please? Easy no problem, easy some issues, or ghastly do not do it under any circumstances... ;) Basically, I'm looking at some used/refurb dual PIII units and will run RAID on Compaq built in SCSI or is it easy to pop in some 3ware SATA in them? Let me know in terms of CentOS 3 and/or 4 please.

Ok, here's what iam trying on,, a compaq proliant 8500 server with 8 xeon 550mhz processors, 6 gig ram,, i just installed centos 4.1 on a proliant 3000 dual 550's and 2 gig ram and went smooth as silk, just got the 8500 and it seems to be in good order, but when i tried (twice) to install centos 4.1 it stalls shortly after a screen of stuff installing and the last two items are something

Howdy all. We're experiencing some difficulties encountered from a new build/install world/kernel on a Compaq Proliant machine we have. We were running fine under 4.7-STABLE, and updated the sources to 4.8-STABLE last night (5/8/03), built and installed. This morning after a reboot, we got a horrid error to the likes of: Error mounting root. Error no 22. We encountered this error earlier

greetings, for those of you in the know, may i have some assistance in helping to make better decisions in purchasing more used server toys to install CentOS on please? :-) in the Compaq Proliant Rackmount DL380 line, the one that looks like the older 1850R is called a G1 meaning Generation 1 right? and then the DL380 G2 is a redesign that is gray and just has 6 drive bays up front correct?

Hi, I''m trying to boot xen dom0 on a Compaq Proliant 2500 but so far I have been unsuccessful, I get (XEN) Not enough memory to stash the DOM0 kernel image. On a normal linux 2.6 kernel to boot I have pass "memmap=exactmap memmap=640K@0 memmap=319M@1M" to the kernel at boot otherwise it hangs because of the way Compaq Bios reports the system memory. I''ve tryed to use

After yum upgrade, the new CentOS5 kernel [ kernel-2.6.18-92.1.1.el5.i686 ] crashes each time early in boot process on Compaq ProLiant 3000 with dual Pentium3 CPU (600 MHz, CPU0: Intel Pentium III (Katmai) stepping 03, CPU1 the same). I get kernel panic at powernowk8_init+0x05e/0x1c3. The previous kernel [ kernel-2.6.18-53.1.21.el5.i686 ] seems to work fine. I am wondering if anyone has met

I'm running bind in a chroot environment. It seems that since the Redhat snafu which wrecked bind (yes, I had caching nameserver running as well but not anymore) I have been having problem with my slave nameservers retrieving updates from the master. Looking at the zone records, some are owned by root, some are owned by named. I'm now confused as to what the ownership should be and

I've been seeing some random Proliant DL380 G4 64bit crashes. Each time, on the console are messages relating tojbd2/cciss and something about a waitfor 120 seconds. Is anybody else seeing anything like this? Oddly, I can't seem to find this in the logs. I guess it can't write when this happens. -- John Hinton 877-777-1407 ext 502 http://www.ew3d.com Comprehensive Online

Hello Everyone, I recently installed CentOS 5.5 x86_64 on a brand new ProLiant DL380 G7. I have identical OS software running reock-solid on two other DL380 ProLiant servers, but they are G6 models, not G7. On the G7, the installation went perfectly and the machine ran great for about 2 weeks, when it just seemed to "stop". The system stopped responding on the network, and there was

Sorry to be beating a dead horse to death here... but... in the archives, mostly the FAQ is mentioned, but the FAQ seems to be 'coming soon'. :) I just did a clean install of 3.3. I am operating from the command line. I first mistakenly ran.. been there done that on WhiteBox as well. :( rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY Got what I understand now is the expected errors. I then

Any chance we can set up a low-volume "centos-announce" list so that we all don't have to read all of these non-Centos-specific E-mail threads about people figuring out how to admin a Linux box when all we need to know is when major releases/milestones/news items are available? Regards, -Tom

I find apps running in wine are unbearably slow. In particular - HTML-Kit by Chami. I really like this editor on NT at work, I want to use it at home on my FreeBSD box. It works in wine, just very very slowly. I do not have a windows partition. I'm running wine by itself. Any suggestions on ways to get speedier results? -- Chip

Has anyone done an upgrade from RHEL3 to RHEL4? Is this likely to break a lot of things? How long will Centos be supporting version 3? I just installed Centos 3.4 two weeks ago! The only problem I'm having with Centos is that the perl is a bit old. I have errors with spamassassin. So far bugzilla for spamassasin is blaming it on the version of perl included in RHEL3 and bugs in the

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have any familiarity with this server? It uses the Super X6DH8-G2 motherboard. Currently, we've added an Adaptec 2120S Ultra320 RAID PCI Controller Card to get RAID 5 capability. The installation bombs and from what I can tell it looks like we're getting SCSI resets or the controller is going offline maybe. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
