similar to: Dual-boot with WinXP, CentOS already installed

Hi, I have to install CentOS on a spare partition of a laptop with Windows pre installed. Is there anything I have to watch out for? Couldn't find anything in the wiki or does the installer handle this well without me doing some magic, or so? TIA, Frank.

Hi all, I installed BackupPC on one of my Centos 5.4-machines following the wiki at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BackupPC#head-725ed151d366bcf182cea92f765c373900cfc9dc, where BackupPC is installed from the c5-testing repo. root at mach012 ~/ [0]# rpm -qa backuppc backuppc-3.1.0-1.el5.centos root at mach012 ~/ [0]# Seeing how there's been some updates to BackupPC in the near past, I

Hi all, This is the third fresh install of CentOS 7 1708 the last two months that won't boot after a regular "yum update" just after the fresh install has finished. I've never had this problem before, it has just worked. The installs are on OEM's that have previously run CentOS 6.9 x64. Am I missing something here? -- BW, Sorin

Hi, Is there any way I can read a .docx file on my CentOS desktop ? Cheers, Niki

Hi all, Am I the only one to have had a totally trouble-free upgrade to 5.2??

Oh, well, there's no coulmns I can find to show various speed, trackers used, remaining time, ot able to sort on name, speed etc. Basically it's the gui I don't like. It's fine otherwise and does its job excellent. -- /Sorin ________________________________________ From: centos-bounces at centos.org [centos-bounces at centos.org] on behalf of Jeff Allison [jeff.allison at

Hi all, I'm looking for a web photo gallery for my personal web server at home. Till now I've done the galleries manually from Adobe Photoshop Elements, but I feel that is a dead end, kinda', besides the fact that the galleries created are rather static. I'd like an easier way to do this, eg uploading images in folders directly to the gallery and it will take care of what needs to

Hi all, I've built a new backup server for our linux-clients. Is Amanda the way to go for a backup-solution? It seems to be pretty powerful, if a bit finickety to set up initially. The way we currently do backups is to use rsync from the clients to two folders on an older server that rolls over every other week. This worked fine for a while, but the rsync is cumulative and the users

Hi all, I apologise for this off-topic question, but wanted to hear from a third-party as well. Recently, like the last week or so, I've started getting blank emails from this list. Blank as in no message text is visible in the email. If I do a ctrl-A however, something does get marked. Evidently there is a message, just not visible. This particular list is the only one I've noticed

Hi all, We're getting to a point in our linux environment where it's starting to be cumbersome to keep shadow and passwd-files up-to-date for the users to login on each computer. Scripts can only get us so far. 8-/ I've looked a bit into central login systems for linux, and NIS and LDAP seem to be prevalent. NIS being the simpler-to-setup solution for small to medium networks as

Hi all, Just recently I started getting the dreaded message about my CentOS 6.7 x64-installation wasn't going to be supported anymore by Google Chrome. "This computer will soon stop receiving Google Chrome updates because this Linux system will no longer be supported." Doing some google searches I found this;

Hi all, Just switched my home computer from Windows 7 to CentOS 6.6 and I'm having a slight bit of trouble with the bittorrent-clients. * Transmission is fine but lacks "a bit" in features. * Vuze is my preferred bt-client but gives me horrendous gfx-artifacts, like not showing the torrent name (it's white text on a white background or some such...). * Deluge is better, and

I see Johnny Hughes has released CR-updates for CentOS 6. Is CentOS 6.4 brewing yet then? 8-) -- BW, Sorin ----------------------------------------------------------- # Sorin Srbu [Sysadmin, Systems Engineer] # Dept of Medicinal Chemistry, Phone: +46 (0)18-4714482 >3 signals> GSM # Div of Org Pharm Chem, Mobile: +46 (0)70-4250229 # Box 574, Uppsala University, Fax: +46 (0)18-4714482 #
