| z00dax | Makenshi: make sure you understand the problem and know whict part of it you are looking to solve before solving it, is all I am saying :) |
| hank | range: i restored it from my backup. when i had no conf, i dont know wether grubby was even started. |
| Makenshi | z00dax, right :) |
| hank | range: and even if i had no conf: grubby should still throw an error when i do grubby --default-kernel or grubby --set-default range: dont you think so? |
| tiny | wooohoooo it flies *fly |
| range | hank: I thought it did with "cannot find usable template"? |
| hank | range: ok, lets do this slowly... with grubby --set-default=/path/to/kernel i point grubby to the kernel which's first entry in the grub.conf grubby should use as a template. right? |
| range | hank: /sbin/new-kernel-package shows how grubby is called from the postinstall scripts in the kernel package. |
| k31th | Guys still not heard any thing back from those email i sent the other day to centos.org asking about adds |
| hank | range: i knew the call already. and it doesnt help. |
| Evolution | k31th: lancelan usually responds to those. not sure why he didn't follow up. |
| k31th | Think i used that web form, I just resent the emails to be sure Evolution. Ti staff@ and webmaster@ To* |
| Evolution | k31th: check PM for a ballpark on the price. based on previous answers of similar questions. |
| k31th | k |
| pg_apprentice | hi, I'm thinking of kicking off XP for good, going to linux permanently with no dual boot. Do many people here run Centos on their desktop machine? |
| Evolution | pg_apprentice: yep. done it since centos4 came out. |
| k31th | Do CentOS have / need a UK mirror? |
| longword | Some would say Fedora is a better choice for a desktop |
| pg_apprentice | I've used centos4.4 as a server machine for a while now, seems to work fine with no hassles. |
| Makenshi | k31th, yes it has uk mirrors |
| nayyares_ | i want to install centos, but have only first cd, is it possible to install it from first cd? |
| Makenshi | one of which is in a netblock consecutive to one of mine :o) |
| Evolution | k31th: http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13 |
| longword | nay: A network install may be possible from the first CD, not sure - but the first CD should definitely have the file images/boot.iso which will definitely do a network install |
| Makenshi | Yes you can install from http/nfs/ftp with the first cd |
| nayyares_ | i will then try to install it form internet, what http address should i give durring installtion i mean for centos 4 |
| Makenshi | http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.4/os/[arch]/ |
| nayyares_ | Makenshi, http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.4/os/i386/CentOS/ ? |
| k31th | Anyone here run ruby on centos? i need to setup RoR on my CentOS box. |
| Makenshi | nayyares, remove "CentOS/" from that, and yes |
| k31th | ah ruby is in testing. |
| Evolution | k31th: wait for c5 for rails. it'll be easier. |
