similar to: CentOS 5 Beta dual boot with FC7T2 (unsatisfying)

To test CentOS 5, I loaded from DVD adding it to a system at home running Fedora Core 7 T2. Partition Layout is: /dev/hda1 - / for the RH7T2 system /dev/hda2 - /home /dev/hda3 - swap /dev/hda4 - extended /dev/hda5 - / for CentOS 5 The system loaded cleanly and gave me the opportunity to tell grub about the other system. CentOS boots fine. Grub Stage 2 will show me both systems.

I am running wine 20050725. I used winetools to get an assortment of software loaded and with a bit of tweeking it worked. I then ran the install CD for Broderbund "The Print Shop". It loaded OK and after copying a few dll's from my windows box, it came up and ran. My problem is with printing. After reading through the users guide on printing and poking around in the archives

I am new to CentOS. I mostly use Fedora Core. I installed the CentOS 5 Beta on a test machine from the DVD. I configured it with both KDE and Gnome. I am using the default YUM configurtion which loaded with the DVD. Unlike FC7T2, CentOS 5 Beta does not seem to pick up Yum updates. Is this by design or do I need to add repos to my /etc/yum.repos.d? Thanks for any suggestions Bob Styma

Then I ran "syslinux d:" from a Win98SE DOS-box to (try to) initialize the partition's boot record. And added this from a

I''ve seen this happen before, not sure why. I changed ''phy:'' to ''file:'' and it worked. I later rebooted and ''phy:'' worked again. So you might try ''file:'' rather than ''phy:''. -- Ray -----Original Message----- From: xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com

I have a question about setting up a samba BDC (with a samba PDC). I am running Samba as the PDC on a small network. Other Unix boxes on the network are running with: security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = Yes update encrypted = Yes password server = 192.168.1.5 So they make use of the PDC for smbmount and smbsh applications. The W2K box also uses Samba at the PDC. I want to set up a Redhat

Redhat Linux will install and configure Samba Currently 2.2.1a. The pieces are not placed in /usr/local/samba/... Does anyone have the configure parameters that would allow a "make install" of Samba 2.2.2 to put everything in the right place? I could not find this in the archives. Also, it appears smbsh is still broke in Samba 2.2.1 for Redhat 7.2. Is this known to be the case?

I did not mean to send the previous question in HTML. I wish to solicit information and comments. I am attempting to convince our ITS department to create trust accounts for the Samba server nodes on some of our lab machines which sit across an internal firewall from the corporate network. My purpose is to access UNIX files on the samba servers from PC's connected to the corporate lan.

I installed C 6.0 in an empty partition. It functioned. Despite using the usually successful methods of booting into another operating system from C 5.7, I can't get into C 6.0 Tried:- title C6-0 (2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64) rootnoverify (hd0,6) chainloader +1 and root (hd0,6) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=67c62872-0c69-451c-8412-3c218c0d2cb0 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM

Adding title Windows XP rootnoverify (hd0,1) chainloader +1 to /etc/grub.conf has always worked for me on every dual boot Win2k, XP, 2k3 / linux boxes I have ever built. Install Windows first then install Linux. You do not need a kernel that has NTFS support and you don't have to play with NTLDR. I know that this goes against just about every Dual-Boot HOWTO you will

greetings. i have been three days now trying to add ext3 to an existing suse-7.3 machine. i am using suse's own 2.4.13 kernel source. here is what i have done: following install, i ran tune2fs -j /dev/hda2 (also hda3 and hda4). .journal files were created on each partition, apparently uneventfully. wishing to avoid ai irreversable situation, i initially edited /etc/fstab thusly:

Hi, I tested xm block-attach command with a wrong parameter(file:). Naturally a command error occurred. Then I retested xm block-attach command with a correct parameter(phy:). But a command error occurred again. The second command error occurred because Xend did not remove device information from self.info when the first command error occurred. # xm block-attach vm1 file:/dev/hda4 hdb1 w

I have a disk where serveral files have a file size that is much bigger then the space they actually use. THe file size is bogus. In the example below, the size is reported as 4.2MB but the file is really supposed to be on 116K which is true accoring to du and the block list from debugfs. However, doing a 'cat |wc' file actually gives me 4.2MB bytes. Where are those extra bytes coming

HI all, I had centos on a laptop (dual boot xp). I am giving the laptop to another person so I removed centos. Now when I reboot grub is confused... I tried to manually enter rootnoverify (hd0,0) makeactive chainloader +1 boot This does boot into XP but how do I tell grub that this is the new rules and do this everytime at boot. Thanks, Jerry
