Please (particularly Smooge) review and comment on the new content at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide Based heavily on the pieces I added earlier to http://wiki.centos.org/Migration/5 Tried to keep it general. Would assume that we want only one page on Migration with sub-pages for specific versions. I referred to the CentOS 3 FAQ entry on WBEL migration but it would seem to be

The discussions on the HowTos/MigrationGuide page[s] back in late March never reached closure. The last suggestion on structuring was that there should be version-specific pages such as HowTos/MigrationGuide/CentOS5. I see the page was linked to from HowTos, and Ralph's comment: 52 2007-04-15 13:16:02 2064 RalphAngenendt Linked to Migration Guides - people: Please link to your pages after

Hi, could I get a permission to add to HowTos/MigrationGuide a guide for conversion of RHEL 7 to CentOS 7? For personal reasons, I had to switch my machines from RHEL to CentOS, and I think it would be helpful to have it there. If it is OK to have migration guides for lower versions of RHEL/CentOS, why not 7? OK, here we go: URLBASE=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages

Hi, I've got a couple of servers that are running WBEL4 that I would like to upgrade to CentOS4. I noticed that there is a FAQ which explains how to upgrade WBEL3 to CentOS3, but haven't found anything similar for WBEL4. Are the instructions for the WBEL3 upgrade the same for WBEL4? Should I be doing something else instead? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Eric

Hi, A little more of clarification :) ... In some wiki pages say that the protectbase and priorities yum plugins can not be used together. It seems that the next paragraph must be updated: ====> Always beware when using/mixing 3rd-party repos. The yum protectbase and/or priorities plugins are your friends. Although both can be used together, using protectbase is probably unnecessary if

Hello all. I was hoping someone out there might have some advice or suggestions regarding an upgrade from an archaic Asterisk version. I've been given the daunting task of upgrading a very old Asterisk-1.0.x install to a recent LTS version. I'll also need the install to have high-availability and failover support. From my research, it would appear that AsteriskNOW-3.0 might be my

I am trying to migratean existing RHEL 6 machine to Centos 6. I followed the instructions in https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide I run into problems: when I run yum upgrade then yum tries to access a repository rhel-6-server-extras-rpms and then fails. What can I do that yum no longer tries to access this repository?

Hi, I was asking about php 5.2 because I would like to use this program with these requirements: http://www.magentocommerce.com/system-requirements This ecommerce store is built with the zend framework and requires php 5.2. Mcrypt is not in the centos mirrors either. I did manage to get this beta ecommerce store installed on php 5.1.6-12 by removing the mycript line in the install xml file and

Gerald and P.J., I just finished setting up VNC services following http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server and have a few comments. "2.3.

If possible, I'd like to do a minimal l CentOS 4.4 (the Single Server CD) installation and then mass upgrade everything to CentOS 5. I googled and found this URL http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide/ServerCD_4.4_to_5 Is this recommended? Or will might I run into any problems?

Thank you. I could resolve the issues, by editing stuff in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d There, I created a file rhnplugin.conf with the content [rhel-6-server-extras-rpms] enabled=0 [rhel-6-server-optional-rpms] enabled=0 and I edited the file search-disabled-repos.conf and inserted into the line ignored-repos= ... the pattern rhel* I do not know whether this second step was necessary, I happened

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters.

I'm currently testing a process very similar to that found here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey And would like to update that doc with my observations once confirmed.
