== Proposition A. Do not implement `-a' and `-o'. == Why. 1. Most of the `test` usage is 2 or 3 arg. ops. 2. Issues (and possible `||', `&&' substitutions), described in [0] [0] http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/test.html 3. In case of usage of it, `exec /usr/bin/test $args` can be implemented. Thus, smart users of `-a' and `-o' will

Hi, just out of curiosity: Within a kickstart postinstall script, I tried to do a loop mount, which failed. It turns out that there is no /dev/loop0 (no /dev/loop<x>). After creating it with mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0 everything works fine. Now this script executes in the chroot system. This is the system on the hd. A plain chroot system should not have any /dev or /proc mounted. But

Hi, I'm trying to install the centos netboot install on ppc64le platform but automation installation(kickstart) fails with the following error: Starting installer, one moment... find_file: stat /proc/device-tree/chosen/bootpath, No such file or directory anaconda 21.48.22.56-1 for CentOS AltArch 7 started. * installation log files are stored in /tmp during the installation

Hallo. If `sshd` is configured to have a ForceCommand, no `ssh ?N` must skip this *forced* server?s setup, isn?t it? But it isn?t so. Thus, admin may think that the command is forced by a server, but user can skip that. In such case only port forwarding is available, but anyway *force* is meaningless, IMHO. -- sed 'sed && sh + olecom = love'? <<? '' -o--=O`C

Hello, I have a remote IBM x3550 M4 server that I try to remote control through IMM2. The problem: only the blinking cursor is visible in login console. It moves when I type. It moves to where "Login: _" should be if I press ctrl+c. I can login if I enter the correct login and password, but the shell that I get also shows only the blinking cursor and no text. I can issue commands.

Hello I have create a bootdisk with isolinux. These cd load an initial ramdisk (75MB) as rootfs, start the init process and some service (e.g. network, inetd) and gives me a valid loginshell for working (recover the system from a backup). Now i found, that some of my machines cannot boot from cdrom (the controller doesn't support this). Q: Is it possible to create a floppy bootdisk, that

We have several suse 10.3 guests running in paravirtualization, however all the guests boot with the following messages: Loading keymap Couldnt open /dev/tty1 Loading /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/us.map.gz failed Loading compose table latin1.add failed Start Unicode mode Couldnt open /dev/tty1 Couldnt open /dev/tty2 Couldnt open /dev/tty3 Couldnt open /dev/tty4 Couldnt open

I just downloaded the bind-chroot rpm and looked into it with Archive manager (so I am lazy), and no files, just the chroot tree. I am assuming there is some script that Archive manager does not show, or I am just missing it, because the ROOTDIR= did get added to /etc/sysconfig/named (and the one in the bind rpm is without this line). Just interesting that if you chroot, you are expected to

I posted this problem on IRC yesterday. Here are some logs. Recap on the problem: When I do inspect_os() (from the python api) or invoke virt-inspector, I get this error: libguestfs: error: internal_parse_mountable: internal_parse_mountable_stub: /dev/vg_nestedctos1/lv_root: No such file or directory I don't have this problem when I invoke it using the OS supplied binaries (version 1.14.8).

I get to where the installation begins copying packages to the new host and it's time to change CD's to the second one. I get the following message: An error occurred unmounting the CD... make sure you're not accessing /mnt/source from the shell on tty2...click Ok to retry. I click and nothing changes. I go to tty2 and see the #ssh prompt and see nothing interfering (and the

How can I be sure if it is LKM or not? Today I've run chkrootkit and it gave me: Checking `lkm'...

The tty of the following user process(es) were not found in /var/run/utmp ! ! RUID PID TTY CMD ! root

Hi All, A few years ago I was asked if I could redirect console messages from Iptables to a different virtual console, on RedHat 7.3 . I managed to do it, but can't remember how I did it, now that the same question has arisen ona Centos 3.4 box. I edited /etc/syslog.conf and redirected kern.* to /dev/tty2 for example & this didn't work I edited /etc/sysconfig/syslog and modified

Subject of Hint: How to create a Bootable Live CD/DVD from your Linux From Scratch (LFS) build Good day from Singapore, I am Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming, based in Singapore. I have recently *successfully* created my own custom Linux distribution called Teo En Ming Linux 2020.03 (FINAL), which is based on Linux From Scratch 20200302-systemd book and Linux Kernel 5.5.7, on 12 March

Hello, I am having a problem with the second-generation of a custom isolinux boot CD for one of the PCs here in the lab. We have three types of PC here - two Dells and one from SGI (a SGI 230). The previous version of the custom bootcd still works on all three platforms. The new version only works on the Dells. It fails on only the SGIs with:

hi ya syslinuxerz - i've been slowly working on a making a custom bootable standalone usb-stick with X11 and kde - it's basically builds itself off of a slackware-10.1 server - create a custom initrd.gz ( /dev/ram0 ) http://linux-boot.net/Bootable/InitRD/ - create a custom rootfs.gz ( /dev/loop0 ) http://linux-boot.net/Bootable/RootFS/ - create X11 and kde loopfiles

Hi there, I hope this is the right list. I have been trying to cross compile the LLVM 3.2 for our x86 target by using i586 cross compiler provided by Oselas toolchain (http://www.pengutronix.de/oselas/toolchain/index_de.html). I have cross-compiled multitudes of 3rd party projects before and usually I can apply similar methods to compile the most of them. I have however not been able to figure

Otherwise 'modprobe -r' on a module having a dependency on bridge will implicitly unload bridge, bringing down all connectivity that was using bridges.

First time i doubt whether i am not compile the ext3 file system in the xen kernel (my rootfs is

hi why are tty3-tty6 started after this config change? i would like to have only tty1 finally becasue on a virtual machine there is no need for the other processes since CTRL+ALT+Fx is caught by the own system and remote console mostly not needed at all [root at centos ~]# cat /etc/init/start-ttys.conf # # This service starts the configured number of gettys. start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]
