See for instance http://code.google.com/p/google-perftools/issues/detail?id=305 The fix is to move to google perftools 1.7 Because of a problem with not running the current BIND release a couple of weeks ago, I would like to ask: a) is RedHat likely to choose to backport the fix to 1.6 or will it adopt 1.7 or leave as is until 5.7 or later? google-perftools comes from epel, not rhel. What the epel google-perftools maintainer will do is not easy to judge. I don't know how to interpret https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=675376. But since this is epel and not rhel, I see no relation to the 5.7 release. I would expect that epel maintainers react to this incompatibility between google-perftools and the current rhel release. But then again i have not found an epel bugzilla entry that explicitly mentions the problem. Matthias b) will Centos and/or SL follow RH exactly or will their approaches differ? IOW, how far does the binary compatiblity policy extend? kind regards/ldv
SL 5.5 - Serverboard S5000XSL - Intel Embedded Server RAID Technology II
Hi. =) I'm trying to install the SL 5.5, against the Serverboard Intel S500XSLhttp://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/server/s5000xsland its on-board IntelĀ® Embedded Server RAID Technology II RAID (IntelĀ® ESRT-2 SATA SAS Software RAID). I'm fighting five days in this battle =). I have two servers with this hardware configuration. I followed the instructions in the Intel's Support: - http://downloadcenter.intel.com/confirm.aspx?httpDown=http://downloadmirror.intel.com/18570/eng/ESRT2_Linux_v.14.00.1203.2010.ziplang=engDwnldid=18570 - http://downloadmirror.intel.com/18570/eng/ESRT2_RHEL4-5-6_SLES10-11_v.14.00.1203.2010_Readme.txt But i didn't have success. I tried the RHEL 5.3, to test the driver files. The installation occurred with no probs, I used the boot kernel parameters: linux dd and the megasr driver files (megasr-14.00.1203.2010-1-rhel50-u3-all.img). The RHEL 5.3 recognized the raid controller. I tried all images (and drive files) against the SL 5.5, but all failed. What can I do? Any ideas?

Re: problem with
By default selinux doesn't let nfs work (an intentional decision from the upstream vendor: they figure if you're savvy enough to set up nfs, you can tweak selinux to allow it). However, it's easy to change the policy to allow. Here's a blog post I googled up while trying to remember the commands involved: http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2010/11/02/configuring-a-linux-nfs-server-in-a-selinux-managed-environment/ Alec -- Alec Habig, University of Minnesota Duluth Physics Dept. ha...@neutrino.d.umn.edu http://neutrino.d.umn.edu/~habig/
