similar to: Centos 5 install failed. Could it be the USB ethernet?

I have a bug report in (0002288) on an install failure on my decTOPs (Centos 4.5 installed on them). I have tried a lot of combinations and it is getting tiring. What what happen, or rather how do I get the following to work: Put my HD into a computer (Compaq SSF that I have installed Centos 5 on with no trouble), install Centos 5, move the HD to the decTOP. Different Video card. No PS/2

I am looking into convising the boss to get me a mini-itx system to replace my workhorse notebook (I have to have a corp notebook and I can remote terminal into a Centos server from it). So I have been playing with one mini-itx system (the decTOP) and am looking at my options. I want a fast processor, 1Gb memory, LAN, 4USB, VGA. Wireless and bluetooth optional USB dongles along with a

I have a bunch of DecTOPs. Use the AMD Geode chip. Yesterday I upgraded one of them, and got the dreaded Kernel panic. Something about powernowk8. I could boot up with the old kernel, though. I know I have to put in a bug report on this, will do shortly, but first wanted to try a fresh install on another DecTOP. At the prompt, I specified: linux askmethod After it loaded the kernel, it

I have a newly built drive with 5.2 fresh install (that I will be cloning shortly) in my DECtop and it is failing with X the same way the upgrade from 5.1 drive did (not too supprising there). In 5.1 X worked. I could startx from init 3 and get into GNOME. Also VNC into the box and have a GNOME screen. With 5.2, I get a kernel panic. Well I guess it is a kernel panic because once I run

The tail of two systems and one hard drive. I install centos 5 on a HD while it is in a Compaq with 256Mb memory. After install, i am in graphics mode (Gnome) and top reports not quite all 256Mb used. Then I move the HD to a decTOP with 512Mb memory. I am running non-graphics (init 3). I ssh into the unit and top reports not quite all of that used..... So what ate up more than 256Mb

I am considering putting together a 'micro server' that I can easily travel with. I am seriously considering the decTOP, as at $99 (plus the cost of a 256MB SIMM) is amazingly priced. But I want to run on batteries, so trash a real hard drive. I have a couple of IDE to Compact flash adapters that support 2 flash cards. So I was considering a 4Gb (or even 2Gb) cheap real fash card

https://store.dataevolution.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=DT%2D7001 For $99 a nice little system with AMD Geode GX500 128Mb memory and 10Gb disk. Upgrade to 256Mb and off we go? Replace the hard drive with a Flash card, and run off a battery pack? Add Bluetooth (lower power draw that 802.11) and run IP over it to your desktop.... It does have ethernet, so a crossover cable works too.

I have a set of systems that I have to build that cannot be booted from CD. So I put the drive in another system, do the install, move the drive, and fix the video with system-config-display. But seems perhaps there is another (small) problem. The build system has a PS/2 keyboard interface (and mouse). The target system has NO PS/2 interfaces. Only USB is available. So at boot I get the

Well FWbuilder is NOT easy. The documentation does not match the current GUI. Now the box is locked up. I will have to pull it again, hook it up to a kybd/VGA and reset iptables.... Maybe Shoreline with webmin.... Problem is I want a REAL router/firewall with little work. Both public and private nets have routable addresses. No NATing for me! I just help write the RFC ;) And all the

I have sought information on this in the past. I have a decTOP that I can install DSL on with no trouble from my USB DVD/CDRW drive. Centos won't. Neither 4.4 or 5.0 The boot starts, the CD is being read. After I respond to language, it stops saying it can't find the CD. If I go the linux askmethod approach, I can 'see' it loading the install image from the CD, it goes

Thanks Cole. I need to use network type="ethernet" with LXC instead of Qemu. I have reopened my bug.

I got 4 of those decTOPs (http://www.dataevolution.com/dectop%20info%202.htm) and upgraded the memory to 512Mb. I cannot get Centos 5.0 to install. I have the keyboard mouse attached to an ATEN USB-PS/2 adapter (probably should try without this). I have a USB DVD/CDRW drive. The install CD boots just fine. But then the install says, "No CD" and takes me to Askmethods. So I use

I got a new USB ethernet adapter from ebay, the ad said RealTek chipset, so I thought I would chance it. Well, my 5.2 system does not recognize the USB device. At all. What do I need to do? I checked the driver CD and the XP driver directory's .inf file has the following: ; ASIX AX88172 USB2 to Fast Ethernet Adapter * ; * ; Copyright 2001-2003,

I've been doing a CentOS 7.6.1810 net-install since last night. The machine seems ok but has been stuck with "performing post-installation setup tasks" for hours. This is an old Dell T5400 box, so it isn't blazing fast but ... Is there a way to pull up its skirt (so to speak) and check/monitor the installation activity while installing it? Having already started the

Speaking of USB devices (recent thread on wireless USB), I need at least 4 USB ethernet dongles, cheap. So on EBay I found: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-10-100-USB-to-Ethernet-Network-LAN-Adapter-NIC-RJ45_W0QQitemZ230262173544QQihZ013QQcategoryZ11182QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Here I sit in my hotel room with my Cubie armv7 server with Centos7. They have an ethernet cable here, so most likely I will not need to resort to putting a WiFi USB dongle and trying to master nmcli. But I have to web authenticate to their portal with my personal information. Is that possible with a text web browser? I seem to recall that Centos has one. What to install? Of course,

I am looking for one of those very small USB wifi adapters for the server I am working on. I am tired of dealing with the 4" long TP-LINK I have and for my purposes, one of those little 1cm ones would do. But which work with Linux? When I was last in the store, only the TP-LINK said it was supported on Linux... thanks
