[Cooker] Switch Kernel Package in Installtion

2000-02-16 Thread Banf, Oliver 3843 EXT EPE-8

Hi All !

I would like to change the kernel package with my own (2.2.13 with
nfsv3 patch) because of the NFS bug between Linux and Solaris
2.5.1 and 2.6.

The Problem was mentioned in various mailinglists and newsgroups. As
far as I know the problem still exists in kernel 2.2.14.

After I removed all Mandrake kernel packages and put my one in I ran

  genhdlist .
  gendepslist -f Mandrake/base/depslist Mandrake/base/hdlist

All seems to be ok. BTW my package comes with source, pcmcia and
provides kernel-headers.

The Problem is now, that the kernel-package is no longer been
installed even I have ranting 99 in 'compssList'.

Thanks.
oba

[Cooker] compssList ?!

2000-02-09 Thread Banf, Oliver 3843 EXT EPE-8

Hello out there!

I don't know if I'm right here. If not please apologize and direct me
to the right list.

I'm a Sysadmin working for a costumer who uses Linux as development
environment.

In the first two runs I made a customized Linux-Release based on
RedHat that fits perfectly into the customer environment (Solaris,
NIS+). Now I have to set up a new release because the developer's want
the new features and tools (of course ;-)). 

First I tried RH6.1 because of obvious reasons (see above). With that
release I had several problems.

- NFS-Bug in combination with Solaris 2.5.1
- gcc-2.95.1: problems with c++

... and so on !

Anyway !

After three weeks of debugging and frustration, I switched over to
Mandrake 7.0.

It really seems a good distribution. Well improved. Current
software-packages.

Well done Mandrake !

Now to my real problem. What I *must* do is to insert a new installation
bullet into the 'graphical' and 'newt' installation. I also have to
add some packages and do a costumized package pre-selection.

After inspected 'compss', 'compssUsers' and 'compssList' I really have
problems to understand the structure of 'compssList'.

I've allready added the menubullets in second-stage install and I can
see them.

How do J add another dgGroup in 'compssList' and what are the numbers
behind the packages and categories for? 

Can you please explain that miracle to me :-) ?

Thanks in advance and

so long
oba

I've already done that, but still have no clue about the numbers
behind the packages and categories.

Might be that I'm to stupid :-)

 I've added this:
 
 #- lower bound on the left ( aka 90 means [90-100[ )
 my %compssList = (
   90 = __("must have"), #- every install have these packages 
 (unless hand de-selected in expert, or not enough room)
   80 = __("important"), #- every custom install have these packages
(unless not enough space)
  #- has minimum X install (XFree86 + 
icewm)(normal)
   70 = __("very nice"), #- KDE(normal)
   60 = __("nice"),  #- gnome(normal)
   50 = __("interesting"),
   40 = __("interesting"),
   30 = __("maybe"),
   20 = __("maybe"),
   10 = __("useless"),
0 = __("garbage"),
 );
 
 it will be used in the individual package selection to 
 display the Rating for each package

O.K. I'll try this. But what about the negative numbers?
I saw something like -30 in the file.
 
 i you have better words, please do tell :)
Not yet. If i will find some I'll tell you first :-))

 Oliver, if it's still not enough, tell me.
Many thanks for the helping hand.
