I've been thinking about ways to proceed if I need to set up 5 machines with basically identical software but somewhat variable hardware. A simple approach would be to just set up my golden system and clone the disk, but the hardware differences would probably cause problems. One approach that appeals to me is to install minimal centos on the first system, add a few rpms after installation,

Even a minimal install with nobase installs about 40-50 i386 packages on a 64bit-System. I know this has come up before and thought it might be an FAQ, but I can't find it on the wiki. Some questions are answered here: http://www.goitworld.com/rhelcentos-x86_64-and-i386-packages-mess/ but I have these remaining: - can I tell via kickstart to just install the 64bit packages? - is it safe to

Thanks very much. - Bobby

How does one use virt-install and kickstart ? I've seen others have success but I've had no joy thus far. BTW, my interactive virt-installs for centos6 guests work just fine AND I can do unattended kickstarts for vms by booting from centos6 install dvd and typing the kickstart commands from the boot: prompt. However, kickstart commands in --extra-args when used w/ virt-install just

I have a kickstart install file that doesn't specify the disks specifically. It works like a champ, and the operating system installs and completes. I have a kickstart install file that specifies the disk devices (sda,

Hi, When I upload files into the gluster volume, it replicates all the files to both gluster nodes. But the file size slightly varies by (4-10KB), which changes the md5sum of the file. Command to check file size : du -k *. I'm using glusterFS 3.3.1 with Centos 6.4 This is creating inconsistency between the files on both the bricks. ? What is the reason for this changed file size and how can

I am testing a CentOS 7.6 kickstart installation. After kickstart was initiated, the installation stops at some point where a sort of table is printed under "Installation", and the item that fails is 4 - Software selection, Error checking software selection. I have checked /tmp/packaging.log and /tmp/anaconda.log, but cannot find any errors here that would prevent installation. Poor
