Hi all, I am trying to automate the provisioning of a few VM, dom0 CentOS5 - domU CentOS4.5, the installation goes well but it completely ignores the %post bit in the kickstart: # Kickstart file for a generic VM install url --url http://server/mrepo/centos4-x86_64/disc1 cmdline skipx reboot # Partition information ..... # General system config bootloader --location=mbr keyboard uk lang

The FreeBSD 7.1-BETA and 6.4-BETA builds are now available on the FreeBSD FTP mirror sites. This is the first step in the release process for FreeBSD-7.1 and FreeBSD-6.4. This set of builds do not include pre-built packages. The ISOs are available from: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/${arch}/ISO-IMAGES/7.1/ ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/${arch}/ISO-IMAGES/6.4/

The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE. This is the fourth release from the 7-STABLE branch which improves on the functionality of FreeBSD 7.2 and introduces a few new features. There will be one more release from this branch to allow future improvements to be made available in the 7-STABLE branch but at this point most developers are

The second RC build of the 8.4-RELEASE release cycle is now available on the FTP servers for the amd64, i386, and pc98 architectures. The SHA256/MD5 sums are tacked on to the bottom of this message. The ISO images and, for architectures that support it, the memory stick images are available here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/8.4/ (or any of the FreeBSD mirror sites).

We're doing a "mini-RC3" to encourage testing of the Highpoint driver (hptrr) backout. Testing of 7.0-RC2 showed there were problems with the driver update done between RC1 and RC2. Because it's a "mini-RC" targetted at testing of one particular thing we have not bothered with setting up FreeBSD Update. You can use the normal cvsup-and-build method of doing an update

Hello, I can attach disc ISO image to cd-rom from virsh. And I can replace the ISO image from disc1 to disc2 using the 2nd example. (example) attach-disk guest01 /root/disc1.iso hdc --driver file --type cdrom --mode readonly attach-disk guest01 /root/disc2.iso hdc --driver file --type cdrom --mode readonly My question is, how can I disconnect the image from the cdrom drive using virsh. Because,

I responded to a post in the Dell poweredge mailing list earlier today. My answer was off the top of my head, with a bit of experimentation. The content may be useful in the Cenyos context as well to admin's looking to strip the size of an install to the bare bones. Comment welcomed. Can anyone see any packages which I have missed? -- Russ Herrold ---------- Forwarded message

good day all ... i've started playing around with 4.3 alpha on some ES40 systems. first. the cd iso images all have the incorrect md5sums. i've downloaded them twice from two different mirrors. they are consistent between mirrors. here are the md5sums i get: af45445778616a7d06440fc5d42fcacb centos-4.3-alpha-disc1.iso 9e0a8dc5e5dfbd276fd50caa40428df0 centos-4.3-alpha-disc2.iso

I am trying to detach an ISO from a KVM machine and I've tried both attach-disk using " " in the file path as well as the update-device option but am getting this error error: Failed to update device from /var/run/libvirt/qemu/kvmtest1.xml error: XML description for unknown device type is not well formed or invalid. I tried doing a virsh edit on the xml file to remove the source

I'm trying to install World of Warcraft on Ubuntu 6.06. I have followed the instructions on AppDB to build the patched version of Wine 0.9.18, and am now trying to install it. I am trying to install from iso files on my hard drive, not CDs. I have created a directory /media/fakecd, and I do "sudo mount -o loop disc1.iso /media/fakecd". I also used winecfg to add e: to the device

Ok, I've got most everything setup, but I'm not able to confirm pam_ldap and nss_ldap are working properly. (Actually given the examples in SBE, they still appear to be returning information from local files rather than the ldap info.) I wanted to go back and check my authconfig and reset the parameters. However now when I do a authconfig I get this: ---- authconfig --enablecache

I'm running: localhost(6.1-P)[21] uname -a FreeBSD localhost 6.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE #19: Wed Mar 15 07:15:25 PST 2006 root@g1-18.catwhisker.org.:/common/S2/obj/usr/src/sys/LAPTOP_30W i386 localhost(6.1-P)[22] I figured I'd grab a copy of the recent 6.1-BETA4 (disc1) ISO to try it out & hand it out to folks.... It seems to have worked, but I got a bit of a whine

Does the 6.1-BETA4-i386-disc2.iso contain only usr/share/doc, or for some reason i am unable to see anything else? I was looking for usr/src (and for a odd chance to have usr/ports); i suppose those two trees would be available somewhere on some disc for RELENG_6_1. I mounted the image as ... mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/6.1-BETA4-i386-disc2.iso -u 0 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0 /mnt ...

Hi, I am trying to get my kickstart file that worked under 5.1 to work under 5.2 centos x86_64. This is the error that I get. On the screen it says Exception occured and gives me the option to save it. This is that file. I dont see any odd that would cause it to crash. Can anyone help. My kickstart file is in the mix below. Seems to be related to network, my line seems fine (I think) for

When I use my kickstart file (which works on 5.1 x86_64) with 5.2 I get the following error. I put my kickstart file at the end.

Greetings. There must be some minor changes to anaconda. I'm getting the error: "Cannot open repomd.xml file...." the file seems to be located in the repodata directory...

Hi, all. I'm trying to customize a CentOS installation cd, but got trouble with kickstart. I want to use dialog[1] for command line based user interface, but it can't display correctly in kickstart with CentOS 5.5. Same ks file works with CentOS 5.3 (both i386 and x86_64). What's the different between CentOS 5.3/5.5? I can't find it in release notes. And how can i fix it? Thanks

I am trying to a install Centos 5.1 32-bit Xen HVM DomU onto a Centos 5.1 64bit DomU with the default xen installed and the kickstart hangs at random points during the install process. Sometimes retrieving the image, sometimes formatting the filesystem, sometimes installing the packages,etc. I tried upgrading to xen 3.2 and encounter the same problem before rebuilding back to stock Centos 5.1
