When using buildinstall and CentOS 5.2 to create my own CD minus a bunch of unneeded RPM's and plus a few of my custom RPM's I find that the install CD that gets build does not install an initrd which renders the system unbootable. I also notice that when I run buildinstall with the -debug option it says: unpacking

I have added a few custom RPM's to my CentOS 5.2 CD, dropped a kickstart.cfg file in the root of the CD, and now want to change the isolinux.cfg in the boot.iso so that it will automatically do a kickstart install when the CD boots up. I am using buildinstall to make the ISO. I edited the isolinux.cfg in /isolinux in my CentOS 5.2 distribution tree off of which I am building my ISO. But

I have a consulting client who has a Linux based storage appliance which is based on Fedora Core 2. I'll pause here while you laugh... They need to upgrade to something more easily supported and CentOS is the chosen distro. They have the source RPM's for their old system stored in CVS and have a very weird/complicated build system to turn it all into an iso which I am still figuring

Hi all, We're attempting to use CentOS 5.1 on a test platform which uses a CF card as it's primary storage. (MB: ETX-LX) The BIOS supports booting from CD and/or the CF.

The 5.3 upgrade broke the kickstart procedures for my xen virtual machines. They are installed via http. 1. The installer sets up the timezone interactively even though it is specified in the kickstart file. Not a big deal, though. 2. The installer hangs unpredictably when installing selinux-policy-targeted-2.4.6-203.el5.noarch.rpm. Performing a dozen or so installs, sometimes the

Hi All, I've built a custom CD based on CentOS 4.2. An OOB CentOS 4.2 disk will detect the megaraid (Perc4) card in a Dell 1850/2850, and load properly. My version does not. I have checked, and the original shipping kernel for CentOS contains the same megaraid_mbox driver as the updated kernel that is on my CD. Basically, my CD removed some RPMS, and added others for a custom

Greetings, Xen developers! I have been using AoE with Xen to great effect and I am very pleased with how the whole system has worked out. The two technologies really complement each other. I consider it the ultimate setup. Aside from the network switch (eventually to be remedied) my serving infrastructure has zero single points of failure. However, this virtualization paradise has a flaw:
