similar to: Rebuilding a Centos 6.2 netinstall initrd with an updated driver?

Thanks for the thoughts. I will not be updating to Centos 6.7 across 200 workstations when Centos 7 is close on the horizon. I've had to use Centos 6.6 for two other non-standard machines in the last few months which is why I was talking of using it again here. I'd rather not have three CentOS distributions on the floor, two is enough. Thanks for confirming what else I would need to do

Dear R-Users, I need a very fast and reliable database solution so I try to serialize a data.frame (to binary data) and to store this data to an SQLite database. This is what I tried to do: library(RSQLite) con <- dbDriver("SQLite") db <- dbConnect(con, "test") dbSendQuery(db, 'CREATE TABLE frames("simID" INT, "data" BLOB)') data.bin <-

<snip> This it is a very easy process to create an installable usb key: 1. Download the iso file from a mirror. 2. Check the sha256sum with this from the command line: sha256sum <isoname> 3. verify the output is the same as this list (for CentOS-6.7): http://mirror.centos.org/centos-6/6.7/isos/x86_64/sha256sum.txt.asc 4. Find the name of your USB stick, from the command line
