similar to: Spacewalk howto for CentOS 5

This Article describes installation of some packages from EPEL (section 6.1). Listed in the packages to include is java-1.6.0-openjdk*. I think this is not necessary anymore as java-1.6.0-openjdk* is part of CentOS 5 now. financial.com AG Munich head office/Hauptsitz M?nchen: Maria-Probst-Str. 19 | 80939 M?nchen | Germany Frankfurt branch office/Niederlassung Frankfurt: Messeturm |

Hi, I would like to contribute to the CentOS wiki by adding a new page for the CentOS LiveCD 5.1 release notes. This page should be located somewhere like: http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveCD5.1 Username: PatriceGuay Regards, -- Patrice Guay

Dear Patrice, I have noticed that you are referencing to the Stahnma repository for Spacewalk Client Tools. These are quite old and I would suggest to use the tools from: http://spacewalk.redhat.com/yum instead. Mr. Suchy already pushed some of the packages to Fedora/EPEL so they might be available there, soon. Besides that the Spacewalk Team is thinking about a split between client/server on

At boot time, the system is looking for a resume signature on the default SWAP partition that was defined during the OS installation. On several systems, I changed the location of the SWAP partition. How do I change the location where the system looks at boot time for the resume signature? Thanks, -- Patrice Guay patrice.guay at nanotechnologies.qc.ca

I updated the livecd-tools package from version 013 to 014. This update introduces new interesting features like : - support for Xen kernel - built-in md5sum into the resulting LiveCD ISO - a new API See https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd/wiki/GetToolset for instructions on how to get this updated toolset. Since it is a major update, I expect some bugs. I am looking for feedback from

Dear all, HugoDoria's last two edits on the Spacewalk page (http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PackageManagement/Spacewalk) have removed line feeds from all preformatted text, as well as pointed to some RHEL6 packages on a page written for CentOS 5. I propose that the page be reverted backed to revision 82. Regards, Timothy

Folks, I am terribly puzzled by an issue reported as bug 2381 [http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2381] ? definitely an upstream bug, as it does the same under X/OS 5 and StartCom 5. Simply put: Hibernation fails with horrendous I/O errors after swsusp starts dumping to swap. What bugs me is that hibernating from the CentOS 5 LiveCD *works*!!!
