Hello: I've written information on installing Grub: http://wiki.centos.org/YvesBellefeuille/Grub_Installation I wrote this in response to requests that I update the Hard Disk Upgrade Mini How-To I wrote a zillion years ago to add information about Grub: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2011-August/115661.html http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2011-August/115617.html The

Hello: My user name is YvesBellefeuille. I'd like to edit the information on using Skype under CentOS 6 at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Skype . The current information is based on http://www.openfusion.net/2009/09/19#fn.html , which was written in 2009 and is no longer accurate. Here are two examples: (1) it's no longer necessary to install qt4; (2) the packages to be installed are

Hello: I've completed the HowTo "Grub Installation for CentOS 5 and 6", currently at http://wiki.centos.org/YvesBellefeuille/Grub_Installation I'd like to suggest that an appropriate location would be in the HowTos, section 17, Misc. (It doesn't seem to fit neatly anywhere else.) I couldn't figure out how to do the two internal links at the very bottom, so please

Hello: As I mentioned, I consider the Grub Installation for CentOS 5 and 6 HowTo to be ready. It's now at http://wiki.centos.org/YvesBellefeuille/Grub_Installation ; I'd like to suggest that an appropriate location would be in the HowTos, section 17, Misc.

Hi: I've finished the changes about installing Skype on CentOS 6. Thanks.

According to the Wiki, the CentOS contrib repository "contains packages contributed by CentOS users which do not overlap with any of the core distribution packages". The repository seems to be empty. Are contributions actually welcome? Are there any policies about proposing packages? Thanks, -- Yves Bellefeuille <yan at storm.ca> "La Esperanta Civito ne rifuzas anticipe

Hello: Skype for Linux version 4 has recently been released. An RPM package has been made, and it's mentioned in the Wiki: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Skype#head- a08dbc518378653842007a2eec37bc32e13c0bd0 However, Microsoft claims to prohibit redistribution of Skype (http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/legal/terms/tou/ , subsection 4.2). My feeling is that the Wiki shouldn't mention

Hello, Is there a standard format for quoting examples of commands to be entered by the user? I've given the following example commands: cd /tmp wget http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-static cd /opt tar xjvf /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7.tar.bz2 rm /tmp/skype_static-4.0.0.7.tar.bz2 ln -s skype_staticQT-4.0.0.7 skype Someone changed them to add prompts: [root at host]# cd /tmp [root

There's a mistake in HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey , so I'd like to ask that someone fix it, or that I be given editing rights. The mistake is that in the section on CentOS 6, step 8, the correct command is "syslinux /dev/sdb1" (only). Also, although this isn't a mistake, I'd like to suggest mentioning in step 1 that the reason why part of the USB key has to be formatted

Hello all, I am attempting to install CentOS 5.5 on a recently donated home server (was Windows). I've tried installing twice; first, separating /boot, swap, /, /var, /usr and /home into different partitions, the second time choosing default layout. Both times have resulted in "GRUB Hard Disk Error" upon boot. About the hard disk, it is a Seagate SATA drive. I do not have another

I made the following changes: * removed all references to stunnel. It isn?t necessary in every supported version of CentOS, and in CentOS 5 or earlier it wouldn?t work with anything modern anyway due to OpenSSL being out of date on an unsupported platform and won?t use any modern TLS implementations. * I switched all the commands to use sudo instead of running as root, * I switched it to an

I recently installed CentOS 5.1 on a DL71 ASI notebook. After my yum update the timeout parameter in /boot/grub/grub.conf file has no effect. It sits at the grub screen forever unless I press the enter key to select a kernel, at which point it will boot. Any help or suggestions to fix this would be much appreciated CentOS release 5.2 (Final) Kernel 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5 on an i686 # grub.conf
