similar to: CentOS 6.4 x86_64 VM Install freezes

I have a CentOS 5.6 system with a AMD Sempron(tm) Processor LE-1300 (which does not provide hardware virtualization support, so I can't use the --cdrom option) and I am *trying* to install FC15 as a guest O/S using a local FC15 DVD-ROM image. Everything work until the installer *insists* on firing up the network to get the repo data, etc. I have a *dial-up* Internet connection and this is a

After snapshot-delete, the qcow2 image file size doesn't decrease, isn't that a waste of disk space? Would someone please tell me how to decrease the file size when snapshot-delete, if that's possible? The image file name of my virtual machine is d0.qcow As follows: [root at test1 ]# virsh list Id Name State

I am trying to get amanda backup going on a CentOS 7 system and things are not working: sharky4.deepsoft.com% sudo systemctl start amanda-udp [sudo] password for heller: Job for amanda-udp.service failed because a configured resource limit was exceeded.

I am the tech guy for a local library. We have a network containing several diskless workstations. The hardware are these P4 boxes: http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=SAMBA845V-24-4-R&cat=SYS (We have inserted additional memory, bringing most of the machines up to 1.25Gig of memory, and two up to 2Gig of memory.) These little machines have integrated Intel video chips on their

I sent this out about a week or so ago, but I have heard nothing. I am *thinking* it is a SELINUX problem, but I cannot figure out what. The SELINUX settings for both machines are *exactly* the same (the stock defaults for a standard CentOS 6 install). The *only* difference is that the desktop (sauron) has a few VMs setup (under KVM) and the laptop (gollum) does not. The desktop has an AMD

I have not yet found a USB-to-serial adapter detected as /dev/ttyACM1.

I am setting up Samba on a standalone CentOS 7 server (using LDAP with openldap for authentifcation) and things and somewhat working. There is a bit of weirdness though. smbclient is only able to access *directories* and not any of the files. Why is that? What am I missing? Here is a log of a test run: [heller at c764guest: ~]$ ls -lZAn total 8424 -rw-------. 1

I am having a problem with setting up diskless clients under CentOS 5.2. I have everything working under CentOS 4.7. This is an adaptation of the (somewhat old) Diskless Linux with PXE HOWTO by Gerd v. Egidy, originally at the URL http://www.intra2net.com/opensource/diskless-howto/, which is now defunt (there is a mirror of it at http://blog.chinaunix.net/u/2389/showart_82438.html). What I am

Does there exist a version of Lilo built for x86_64 CentOS 5?

I am trying to run my old CentOS4.8 (32-bit) system as a guest system under CentOS5.4xen (64-bit). I followed the instructions in Appendix A of the xen user manual (/usr/share/doc/xen-3.0.3/pdf/user.pdf) and created a 'disk image' (actually a 10gig LVM logical volume: sauron.deepsoft.com% sudo fdisk -l /dev/mapper/sauron-c4guest Disk /dev/mapper/sauron-c4guest: 10.7 GB, 10737418240

Is there some reason the ahci kernel module is *missing* from the 2.6.9-89.0.16.plus.c4 kernel? It is in the standard 2.6.9-89.0.16.EL kernel. Is this due to an oversight or is there some sort of conflict? I wanted to add IEEE1394 support to my system running CentOS 4.8. I *looks* like what I need to do is download the kernel SRPM and patch the config to include the IEEE1394 modules and

For some awful reason (can someone explain why?), the RHEL/CentOS build of firefox is hardwired to use evolution as its mailto client. With FF 2.<mumble> this was fixable with an about:config setting. With 3.0.<mumble>, it seems not. What is the proper way of fixing this? *I* ended up doing a 'sudo rpm -e evolution' and then doing a 'sudo ln -s
