It gets all the way through the install, and then when it reboots, grub can't find the kernel. Grub can't find the kernel because the kernel was not instaled for some reason? I looked at the box through rescue mode and in /boot there is no kernel. Any ideas what might have happened? Cheers...james

Hi All, I've been trying to put together a one off CentOS 4 based distro, and I ran into some trouble. First off just so you know we've been doing this with CentOS 3 and with RedHat 9 before that, so the inexperience is only with the delta between CentOS 3 and CentOS 4 (and RHEL 3 and RHEL 4 by extension). Anyway, the problem is that for some reason /dev/console is not getting created.

I am using R 2.5.0 on windows XP and trying to fit copula. I see the following code works for some users, however my code crashes on the chol. Any suggestions? > mycop <- tCopula(param=0.5, dim=8, dispstr="ex", df=5) > x <- rcopula(mycop, 1000) > myfit <- fitCopula(x, mycop, c(0.6, 10), optim.control=list(trace=1), method="Nelder-Mead")

Greetings, I''ve had no success with mounting a vfat file system created by a Windows XP guest on a lvm volume. # mount -t vfat /dev/vg1/win1 /mnt/ mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/vg1/win1, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so # dmesg FAT: invalid media value (0xb9) VFS:

Does anyone know of a way to have grub install to a floppy image rather than a real floppy device? Thanks...james

Can anybody tell me if it makes a difference if domU''s have separate LVM volume groups? For instance, the Xen User Manual ( http://tx.downloads.xensource.com/downloads/docs/user/#SECTION03330000000000000000) says, when setting up a domU''s disks with LVM, to do a vgcreate vg /dev/sda10 Should each domU have it''s own volume group, or can all the domU''s share

this has never happened to me before, and I'm somewhat at a loss. got a email from the cron thing... /etc/cron.weekly/99-raid-check: WARNING: mismatch_cnt is not 0 on /dev/md10 WARNING: mismatch_cnt is not 0 on /dev/md11 ok, md10 and md11 are each raid1's made from 2 x 72GB scsi drives, on a dell 2850 or something dual single-core 3ghz server. these two md's are in

Ran into a confusing situation today. When I mount an xfs filesystem on a server running centos 5.4 x86_64 with kernel 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5, the barrier/nobarrier mount option as displayed in /proc/mounts is always set to "nobarrier" Here's an example: [root at host ~]# mount -o nobarrier /dev/vg1/homexfs /mnt [root at host ~]# grep xfs /proc/mounts /dev/vg1/homexfs /mnt xfs

Are folks in the Centos community succesfully using device-mapper-multipath? I am looking to deploy it for error handling on our iSCSI setup but there seems to be little traffic about this package on the Centos forums, as far as I can tell, and there seems to be a number of small issues based on my reading the dm-multipath developer lists and related resources. -geoff Geoff Galitz Blankenheim

I am currently using a Dell PowerEdge server R610 with Xen 4.0 installed and the 2.6.31.13 pvops kernel. I am accessing the server console using the iDRAC KVM feature of the dell management console. Does anyone know how to configure the console option in the grub menu so that all the boot messages can be seen on the mgmt console? Currently I can view only the Xen bootup messages if I dont specify

I searched the mailing list archives and found one post relevant to my problem, but it was not specific enough to solve my problem. I am reading in a large file of data (I believe it is in ASCII format). I have tried reading the file in as a data frame and as a list, and both methods result in unwanted levels being created which leads to problems when I try to copy or reference certain cells.

Hi, I am trying to install a C6 VM on C6 using the text installer using: # virt-install -n C6_1 -r 3072 --os-variant=rhel6 -l \ ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/site/centos.org/CentOS/6.3/os/x86_64/ --disk \ path=/dev/VG1/vm_c6_1 -w network:default --nographics \ -x "console=ttyS0" --autostart /dev/VG1/vm_c6_1 has been successfully created. The installation starts but once I get to the disk

I have lvm based (thin pool) storage on local disks. I need to move vps from one vg on one disk to another. Does it possible to migrate to localhost with blockcopy migration to another vg? I'm understand that i can move lv from one vg to another, but i don't need that. -- Vasiliy Tolstov, e-mail: v.tolstov@selfip.ru jabber: vase@selfip.ru

Hi, I would know how to plot two variograms on a same graph. I can plot one by one but I would draw both on the same one. Is it possible? Do i need any special package? Thanks! Cordialement Damien Landais

I'm pulling my hair out trying to setup a mirrored logical volume. lvconvert tells me I don't have enough free space, even though I have hundreds of gigabytes free on both physical volumes. Command: lvconvert -m1 /dev/vg1/iscsi_deeds_data Insufficient suitable allocatable extents for logical volume : 10240 more required Any ideas? Thanks!, Gordon Here's the output from the

Dear *, I''m more used to work with RedHat like OSes. Still, I did not denied the request from a user who wants a domU based on ubunto. I usually use virt-install to do the job, with a script similar to this one: #!/bin/sh BASE=SL-4.7-i386-pv \ virt-install --nographics \ --nonsparse \ --paravirt \ --noreboot \

'--no-degraded' flag in the first mdadm call inhibits the startup of array unless all expected drives are present. This will prevent starting arrays in degraded state. Second mdadm call (after LVM is scanned) will scan unused yet devices and make an attempt to run all found arrays even they are in degraded state. Two new tests are added. This fixes rhbz1527852.
