similar to: installer with centosplus kernel?

Hi all, I'm doing a very informal and unscientific poll: which kernel do you use on your CentOS machines? Not which version of the CentOS kernel, but which repository. Here are some examples I can think of off the top of my head: ==CentOS stock ==build own from CentOS SRPMs ==kernel-ml (from ELRepo) ==kernel-lt (from ELRepo) ==OpenVZ kernel ==build own from kernel.org ==other? One reason

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

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

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

Hi Bodo and Ted, Thank you both for your responses; they confirm what I thought might be the case. Knowing that I can try to proceed with your suggestions. I do have some followup questions for you: On Sun, Jun 01, 2014 at 09:05:09PM -0400, Theodore Ts'o wrote: > Unfortunately, there has been a huge number of bug fixes for ext4's > online resize since 2.6.32 and 1.42.11.

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

Hi all, I'm having a bit of an issue booting the full 5.7 install CD on an older machine. I downloaded the ISOs earlier today, checked the sha1sums, and burned the CDs with no reported errors. But when I try to boot, the isolinux banner comes up quickly, but then instead of the boot prompt, I get a completely blank screen. After 30-60 seconds, I get a message in purple, the exact wording I

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 --

Actually, I am not sure if we have a backup, because honestly, I am not that very much familiar with Centos. We use it for our mail sever for zimbra and other web servers but after setting it up, as long it is working just fine we don't do any other thing. Does it have an automatic backup system? And if it does, how can we use it to restore it back? Thanks. Regards, CHRIS ----- Original

It'll take you months to replace them, or years to rewrite, but you *can* do it.
