[ilugd] RHEL upgrade
Hi All We have few RHEL 3.0 AS, Taroon Update 8 (32 bit arch) servers which we now wanted to upgrade to RHEL 4.0 ES (64 bit). All the servers are 64 bit arch hardware and were installed 32 bit OS due to application compatibility matrix. Now application is available for 64 bit OS. Is such cross upgrade Ok? what precautions should i take, can anyone advice.

I don't want to understand here what Redhat support and what does't and what is entitlement. What i want to understand is since we are moving the arch 32 bit OS to 64 bit and also crossing the RHEL AS to ES, what will happen to glibc and other libraries, will redhat installation overwrite them with 64 bit or will keep 32bit and also install 64bit libararies. Will there be any issue such as library conflict ? I have spoken to redhat help desk which as usual first difficult to understand what is the question and recommended me a fresh format.

You do need to know that if you ever want to talk to them later on and ask for help / support on issues. So talk to them anyway. What i want to understand is since we are moving the arch 32 bit OS to 64 bit and also crossing the RHEL AS to ES, what will happen to glibc and other libraries, will redhat installation overwrite them with 64 bit or will keep 32bit and also install 64bit libararies. Will there be any issue such as library conflict ? The main diff in ES and AS is in what RH will support you with on the machine, and the number of cores you can really use within that entitlement. It does not really have any difference in the code and binaries themselves. Secondly, hade you decide how you are going to do the upgrade itself ? I would recommend you setup a vmware hosted environ ( not Xen ) and rsync the present OS root into there, and play around - work with options, there are quite a few ways of making this move - and depending on how critical this is, or how much of time you are ready to spend with it - doing a trial run inside a virtual machine would we well worth it. What ever you do, DO make backups and DO create a VM image of the present machine! now, to your question - EL4 has a direct upgrade path from EL3 - and on the x86_64 platform. So all your 32bit'ness should work fine under EL4 since it contains all the major compat-foo stuff needed. Also, the x86_64 EL4 is multilib right through, end to end. While there maybe things that dont run, the systemspace is well split, so adding fluff to achieve the goal is mostly trivial ( with user $clue, you've been active on this sort of issues for a while, so my guess is you have that ). Remember, once you move, and unless you disable selinux from the first stage ( pre-install, during install and post install ) your ext3 filesystem, once migrated, will no longer be usable on EL3 - so its a way one street. Some people have documented reverse path as well, I've not tried it and this is significant enough an issue to mention here. I have spoken to redhat help desk which as usual first difficult to understand what is the question and recommended me a fresh format. If you can, thats not a unwise suggestion. You really should not be thinking of doing a live migration anyway, use the installer to move you rather than userland package manager.

Since the A1200 has a Linux OS, it doesn't matter what Linux Distro you are using. You can mount it just like any other USB thumb drive when it is USB mode. I have also seen somewhere that the Projects like OpenObex can be used to communicate to it using modemmode. Hi Raseel, I finally received my Motorola Ming today and it's awesome!

[ilugd] Red Hat Strikes Back With Next Generation Linux

What you saw was the phone in Modem mode. Usually, just switching from USB modem to USB Mass Storage mode will render the phone mountable. But sometimes, you need to physically unplug it from the USB wire, switch to USB Mass Storage mode and then reattach it. I am using Ubuntu (Debian clone) and it immediately detects and auto mounts the External SD Card as /media/usbdisk However, one thing I have noticed that the in-built phone memory is NOT mounted. ONLY the SD card is mounted for A1200. For the A780, you can mount both the memories. So a possible issue in your case might be that you did not install the SD card. Is that the case ?
