similar to: Custom respin ISO prompting for discs

Hi List, I have been searching for the correct createrepo command to make a 6.4 respin. We have been doing this with previous versions using createrepo -u "media://$discinfo" -g ${DIR}/my_kickstart${VER}/comps.xml . Which had worked fine until now.

Hi folks, I've just finished rsyncing/downloading/jigdoizing the entire i386/x86_64 CentOS 4.2 distribution. If anyone is interested go to http://mirror.tcs.ii.uj.edu.pl/jigdo/ You'll need to edit the .jigdo file by hand to change the server section [Servers] CentOS42=file:/opt/mirrors/centos/4.2/ to point to a local mirror (file, http or ftp), ie. to use kernel.org: [Servers]

Hello, I'd like to announce a release of a CentOS 5 DVD image, with i386 and x86_64 installations. This is an independent work, so please don't bother CentOS lists with bugs related to the installer only. Summary of changes: * i686 and x86_64 install from a single dvd (automatic detection on boot) * updates as of 2007-04-26 * no kdelibs-api-docs, openoffice.org, tetex-doc and most

Hello List, I found these wonderful instruction by Alan Bartlett (thanks Alan) for building a kernel.org kernel that would install on CentOS 5.5. Doing this and moving the resulting .rpm to the target system and doing a rpm -ivh ... works great. Now I am trying to use the same rpm as part of a CentOS respin and the installation fails miserably leaving me with a unbootable system. Using the

hi, I have created a 6.2 local repository in our lan and it works fine for packages. However, when trying to use the yum groups, I get this: # yum grouplist Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security Setting up Group Process Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Error: No group data available for configured repositories I have tried downloading one comps.xml file (I have tried both with

Hi all, I'm updating a customised CentOS 5.2 repo to 5.4. After running createrepo, I find all the usual .xml.gz files updated, but the sqlite.bz2 files have not been touched. What is the significance of these files? If they need to be updated, how is it done? -r--r--r-- 1 user group 1811 Oct 1 2009 TRANS.TBL -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 1050329 May 12 11:04 comps.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 user

Anyone else experience any difficulty with the install routine recognizing disk 3? I'm trying to install 4-beta under vmware and have had the same problem with either mounting the ISO or burning to disk. I can mount and read no problem from my parent linux installation but the install routine under vmware is complaining that it's the wrong disk. (no other install problems under vmware

I run a local repo for our company's packages. Since yesterday we have problems with creating the repo files. When i run "createrepo --update -s sha rpmdir" i get the folowing error: File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 249, in ? main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 223, in main mdgen.doPkgMetadata()

I'm not on the YUM lists, so I'll post this here in the hope it will make someone happy. I'll forward the concept to Seth for consideration (if he doesn't see it here). This is a simple "createrepo" hack that would require corresponding support in the "yum" binary as well. I'm not sure this would work, but it's just an idea I figure I might as well

I need a clarification to the documentation. My manager added a 6.2 repo; however, when I try doing pxeboot installs, it fails, asserting that it can't find the group info. Another admin I work with thinks it's not really what it's failing in, and notes that it 404's on images/updates.img and images/product.img. We *think* that's irrelevant and ok. What is not clear to me is

I just tried an install from my local repo (boot from CD 1, use http method), and it failed right after entering the root password setting with: Unable to read group information from repositories. This is a problem with the generation of your install tree. Reboot So now what? Is there something I can just extract from the isos? (remember I did that rsync). Is this caused by running
