I have a question that has been puzzling me for some time ... what is the reason RedHat chose to go with btrfs rather than working with the ZFS-on-Linux folks (now OpenZFS)? Is it a licensing issue, political, etc? Although btrfs is making progress, ZFS is far more mature, has a few more stable features (especially Raid-z3) and has worked flawlessly for me on CentOS-6 and Scientific Linux-6.

There is software out there which will rebuild. It is advanced level, so I would concur with the others to take it to a professional data recovery service. Most importantly at this moment is to remove the hard drive, or at least shut down the server to minimize the read/write to the disk. The more writes done the less likely recovery will be possible. Also, know whether you just want to

Hello All, Just a short note to add my vote for a HUGE round of applause to the CentOS team for their untiring efforts in getting releases out the door. I've just upgraded several servers to 5.6 and it all "just works". None of the team's work is easy to accomplish, especially when less-than-useful complaints keep popping up from thoughtless users who don't appreciate

This, IMHO, is one of the more annoying bugs with the newer GRUB (which i assume is the bootloader you are using). Specifically the newer grub can't, won't boot from a drive other than the one grub is on. suggest you revert to grub 0.97 or, if any boot loader is or can be put on the drive with the 6.5 distro you can make that drive the boot drive in the bios, which is how i do it. i.e.

Is there a little setup display right on the box? Just asking because I have seen that on some boxes. Cheers, Boris.

Hi all, A year or two ago, I installed CentOS 7.0 (or 7.1) on an old MacBook Pro, and compiled the Broadcom drivers as documented here: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom After not using it for a while, I recently resurrected it, and updated to 7.4. Unfortunately that page has not been updated in a while, so only documents compiling for 7.3. When I try the patch, it

This is an error you can't blame on your device. domain is not a file, but a bash variable. read takes stdin (which is what the OP's snippet is doing) and populates the named variable(s) (domain in this case). --keith --

Hi all, I recently got a brand new MacBook Pro, replacing one that is over 5.5 years old. I'm trying to think of something to do with the old laptop, and one idea I had was to put CentOS on it. After some initial struggles, I finally found this page, which tells how to tell the installer to find hfsplus-utils: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7327 Then I got to the point of configuring

Hi all, Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel. (Of course I can get the kernel

Hi all, Has anyone seen this issue before? This afternoon, I tried updating a bare metal CentOS 6 box, and got some odd error messages on the console during booting kernel 2.6.32-754.11.1. (These aren't exact, I forgot to try to get a photo of the console.) sd 0:0:4:0 timed out resetting card 3w-sas timed out resetting card Then the boot would simply hang, with no obvious disk activity on
