[CentOS] Warning in update
Hi, Recently I updated my CentOS 4.8 and while the updates has installed, yum show me this error some times: /sbin/ldconfig: file /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so;48c8dd6a is truncated /sbin/ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so;48c78993 is empty, not checked. /sbin/ldconfig: File /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.3;48ccd312 is empty, not checked. thanks, -- Daniel Bruno http://danielbruno.eti.br danielbr...@projetofedora.org ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Before discovering CentOS (around 2006), I've been a die-hard Slackware user, so my two install CDs are a bit like a set of two Slackware CDs. Which means, a loose set of directories with stuff in them, plus scripts to install them. For example, directories like x11/, nvidia/, ati/ and compiz/, with stuff in them, which I install only if needed. As for the configuration, I do everything (X11, network, ...) by hand, using Vi. Here's an example. I have a directory java/, with the latest java from sun.com, plus the following script: #!/bin/bash # CWD=`pwd` cp jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin /opt chmod +c /opt/jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin { cd /opt rm -rf jre1.6.0_14 rm -f /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so sh jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin rm -f jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin } ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_14/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so \ /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ cat > /etc/profile.d/java.sh << EOF export J2RE_HOME=/opt/jre1.6.0_14 export PATH=$J2RE_HOME/bin:$PATH EOF chmod +x /etc/profile.d/java.sh source /etc/profile.d/java.sh alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jre1.6.0_14/bin/java 2 alternatives --config java Or, other example, the w32codecs/ directory with the following script: #!/bin/bash # # codecs-install.sh CWD=`pwd` rm -rf /usr/lib/codecs rm -rf /usr/lib/win32 tar xjf $CWD/all-20071007.tar.bz2 -C /usr/lib { cd /usr/lib mv all-20071007 codecs ln -s codecs win32 } This logic applies pretty much to everything. But it's not really an installer. Of course, it *could* be possible to publish some more user-friendly set of install CDs, but this would be a hell of a lot of work, and you'd end up with something like Yellowdog Linux (which is based on CentOS).

But that leaves you in charge of maintaining and updating every piece you install or leaving the systems in a lurch if you don't and there are subsequent security/bug fixes. The whole point of having an enterprise-type long-life distribution is that you don't have to do that. If there is a well maintained 3rd party repo that has the components you need packaged for yum it would be much better to take advantage of it. Sun java used to be something of a special case because few sites were willing to host a copy packaged to accommodate the RH-style wierdness (I generally used the k12ltsp distro based on Centos specifically for this) but now that openjdk is included in 5.3 and in epel it is not so much of an issue. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] mounting images created using dd that contain two partitions
Hi all, I am trying to mount images that I previously created with dd and the images have two partitions (swap and LVM). I use these images to house data for my Xen Guests. For some reason (possibly Kernel conflicts for paravirtualized domains) I am unable to boot my Guest images. Failing which I would like to mount the disk images and atleast get my data out of them. dd -o loop server.img /media/diskimage asks me to provide a file system. How can I mount these images? I have been Googling around for this and have failed to find and answer, can someone please point me in the right direction.

Re: [CentOS] mounting images created using dd that contain two partitions
Ok, this is what I did in the exact same situation (solution below gotten from the xen list). I use it religiously. Lucky I'm on both forums. ** First make sure your guest isn't running unless you want to trash its file systems. losetup -f /var/lib/xen/images/foo.img losetup -a # Make a note of which device corresponds to /var/lib/images/foo.img, # 'll call it /dev/loopN but it's probably /dev/loop0 kpartx -va /dev/loopN You'll get two new entries in /dev/mapper now: /dev/mapper/loopNp1 and /dev/mapper/loopNp2. loopNp1 is /boot (asume you have got a standard layout). loopNp2 is a volume group. You can just mount /dev/loopNp1 to poke around the /boot file system. Now vgscan This is where you might come unstuck. The default volume group for Red Hat and similar is "VolGroup00". If your dom0 is using LVM and so is the guest then you'll have do VolGroup00's and that's bad. The best thing to do now is to boot a rescue image in a different domU and rename the guest's volume group. You'll need to undo the kpartx and losetup (see below first) and when you've all finished then you'll need to either fix up the guest's /boot/initrd*.img, /etc/fstab and / boot/grub/grub.conf to hold the new name or you'll have to rename it back again in the rescue guest. Anyway, assuming you don't get a clash: vgchange -ay VolGroup00 The guest's file systems are now in /dev/VolGroup00 and you can mount them as normal. To undo everything: 1. umount any file systyems you mounted 2. vgchange -an VolGroup00 3. kpartx -d /dev/loopN 4. losetup -d /dev/loopN And next time you build a system, change the name of its volume group so you don't wind up with two systems with the same volume group name! And I wish Red Hat had listened to me years ago when I said that "VolGroup00" was a really poor idea. ** On Sep 26, 2009, at 8:11 PM, Devraj Mukherjee wrote: > Hi aurf, > > On Sun, Sep 27, 2009 at 1:09 PM, wrote: >> Is your local host using LVMs and if so, is your volume group >> something like VolGroup00? >> > > Yes it uses LVM and has VolGroup00 > >> Is your image file also of a VolGroup00? >> >> - aurf > > Yes this is true as well. > > -- > "The secret impresses no-one, the trick you use it for is everything" > - Alfred Borden (The Prestiege) > ___ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] mounting images created using dd that contain two partitions
Well, I would build a new system with no LVMs at all, just set everything as / and ext3. This way you can rescue img files all day long without potential VolGroup00 clashes. I build all my Xen dom0 and domUs w/o LVMs. Why? Cuz I found a bug (I guess, or its just lame) that wen your snapshot volume of your / goes away, and you reboot the system, you can't. This dependancy on snapshots turned me off and I couldn't find a quick way to recover in case of some DR or BCP need. - aurf On Sep 26, 2009, at 8:21 PM, Devraj Mukherjee wrote: > Thanks a lot for that, I will give it a go.
