Natulius CD burner does not accept my 700Mb CD-R disks
When I try to burn anything to cd, I get a message to insert a CD large
enough for my file (normally an ISO image). Doesn't matter if the iso
image is a 600Mb Centos ISO or a 48Mb DSL ISO. Same warning.
My CD-Rs are Memorex 700MB/80min 52x disks that work just fine on XP
systems.
So what am I missing configuration-wise?

What is eating my memory?
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

Firewall frustration
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

Laptop non-graphic install init 5 to X not Gnome
Well I got my 1st notebook install done.
Since the video card takes 24Mb memory, installer would not go graphical
(256-24=232). But I can now boot into character mode.
an init 5 brings up X, but I am in the X environment, and I want to be
in Gnome.
What file am I to edit and what changes do I make?
thanks.

PXELinux v 2.00
Hi Peter,
we are looking at PXELinux to use it for reinstalling PC's.
PXELinux works fine, is such way that the option "LOCALBOOT"
behaves as expected in version 1.76.
v2.00 the "LOCALBOOT 0" doesn't work on some hardware
(systems like Compaq EVO, Compaq EN SFF, in other words,
systems that have the Intel chip on the system board).
The prompt shows "leaving

MOre on buring ISOs
So right now I have installed k3b on this notebook. I am using my Storix
DVD/CDRW usb drive. I can read cds with it.
Cannot burn CDs. First k3b suggests slowing down (from 8x to 4x). Then
use TAO. Then it gave up.
So I try cdrecord directly. -checkdrive finds some interesting things.
Got to close the drive manually; cdrecord says it can't. then try a
cdrecord -v dev=dev/scd0 sample.iso

Three Identical systems - short cut to setting up the drives?
I am building three identical systems. Well they will have different
host names, and with time the software setups will drift. But at
install time they are identical.
Is there some way, (with dd I might guess) to do a hardare level copy?
All three drives are Hitachi DK23DA-40F (40Gb). Supposedly factory
reconditioned (they are in sealed bags with a drive sticker stating:

Installing Centos 5 on one system and moving the HD to another....
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.

Kickstart from floppy falling into regular install
I took my anaconda-ks.cfg file, cp to ks.cfg and copied to a floppy
The isos have been copied to an ftp server. So I had the following
lines in my ks.cfg

url ftp://10.1.1.1// (yes the ftp server's directory is the Centos
directory)
This is along with all the appropriate network command to get the
ethernet setup.

to <cr> or not
I have had some success (read no noticed problems), moving some text
conf files from a Win <cr,lf> format to Linux and have them
work. For example my zone files, moving them from my Win DNS server.
But what about other files? I guess I want to know this more to
prevent a mistake from crashing things, as I do have GEDIT.
If I were to build an anaconda-ks.cfg in notepad, write it to a

If it had two (or more) network ports, I'd be all over it. A single
gigabit nic is a bit limiting for me.

Newer version of Gnome?
I have 2.8.0 from the base repro. I am running yumex with the Plus,
DAG, kbsingh, and jpackage repros. None of which offer a newer version
of Gnome.
I am talking about a 'deficiency' I am having with gnome, and one
responder that does not have these problems is on 2.14.2

[PATCH] x86/paravirt: Do not trace _paravirt_ident_*() functions
?ukasz Daniluk reported that on a RHEL kernel that his machine would lock up
after enabling function tracer. I asked him to bisect the functions within
available_filter_functions, which he did and it came down to three:
_paravirt_nop(), _paravirt_ident_32() and _paravirt_ident_64()
It was found that this is only an issue when noreplace-paravirt is added to
the kernel command line.

Centos 5, X dies, I cry
I just installed Centos 5 for my notebook (HP compaq nc4010) on a
separate drive (than this one that has Centos 4.5).
When I first booted after all the setup, X did not start. hmm.
Rebooted, and X came up fine. I did a bunch of customizing and upgraded
the kernel
Rebooted, X did not start.
Rebooted X started fine. I checked some things out then tried the
Suspend feature. Not
