A new draft page has been created on how to set a USB key to install CentOS from ISO images. This would be most useful for netbooks or other systems without a CD/DVD drive. http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey Comments, please. Phil

I'd like to ask for permission to edit HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey. There was a recent forum thread on using Windows tools to create an installation USB (https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=44268&forum=55). I'd tried some suggested tools; see post no 20 in the thread. I'd like to edit the Wiki to reflect my results. Yves -- Yves

There's a mistake in HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey , so I'd like to ask that someone fix it, or that I be given editing rights. The mistake is that in the section on CentOS 6, step 8, the correct command is "syslinux /dev/sdb1" (only). Also, although this isn't a mistake, I'd like to suggest mentioning in step 1 that the reason why part of the USB key has to be formatted

I'm currently testing a process very similar to that found here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey And would like to update that doc with my observations once confirmed. Preliminary notes (not all relevant to that specific WikiPage - suggestions for where to put the non-kickstart info? First boot partition on USB is FAT32 and uses GRUB to chainload to the second ext2

Hello everyone. My 'wikiname' is JariJaakkola. I have a desire to be able to contribute to the CentOS community in some way. So, I am proposing a page that would be called a 'Newcomer's Checklist'. I feel the location of such page could best be decided by someone else as it would at least depend on the quality/usefulness of the page. Thank you, Jari -- Jari Jaakkola

I found this http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey So for centos 7 if did the dd command seemed to work great. I did the install. So now I'd like to "modify" the USB key to add a boot menu option with my customer install options. I mounted /dev/sdb2 and edited the file /mnt/usb/EFI/BOOT/grub.conf added my menu item and rebooted to try to use it. It does not show up in

My recollection had been that even when possible, booting from USB involved black magic. This helped: Pete Biggs <pete at biggs.org.uk> > Some do, some don't. They all come with

Hi all, I have a problem with a variable created by a SELECT CASE statement. See the code below. I would like the variable "event" to be a character variabel as I want to UNION my two SELECTs - and the "event"-variable is a character variable in the first SELECT result. I have tried different ways: * used ' ' in stead of " " around the string I want as the

After several years as LLVM release manager, I’ve decided to step down as release manager. I recently haven’t been able to focus as much time on LLVM development as I should, and I don’t want the releases to suffer because of that. I’ve enjoyed all of the releases I’ve done. We have a great team of testers. And the community as a whole really helps out so that we can produce a great produce. I my

The problem is that the mp3 dewdz will be used to looking at bitrates to determine quality, so the solution (as several here say) seems to me to just rip out anything mentioning bitrate from the simple tools. But, they will still see the bitrate in players like winamp. To solve this, why not store the quality setting used when encoding into the ogg file itself ? Either use a field unused when

Hi All I'm just wondering if there is a quick way of filling a way with the following. I want to declare array I with a specific length and then alternatively fill it with 10 zeros and 10 specified values: v<- 14 I <- c(0,length(t)) But in stead of just filling I with 0 I want 10 zeros and then 10 fourteens (i.e. the value in v) Hope that makes sense.

Hi, I had trouble recently with using the ssh-copy-id -i switch (in portable OpenSSH?s contrib/), where it told me that ?no identities found?, while I the file existed and contained a valid public key text line. The problem was, that the file was named something.key in stead of something.pub, and the script tried to read the non-existent something.key.pub. The two small patches below fix that,

Hi, I have a number of puppets talking to 1 puppetmaster. Everything was working fine until suddenly this week the puppets are revolting. Whenever I try to run ''puppetd -v'' I see a lot of messages like: Certificates were not trusted: hostname was not match I''m sure I did not make any changes to DNS lately and I didn''t upgrade puppet on any of the machines
