Be sure to tell us everything you know about your machine (intel architecture? What processor(s)? What motherboard/bios? and so on). As a shot in the dark: The installation proceedure asks you if you want to use the graphical or the text based installer. Try the text-based one. Another shot in the dark: it offers you a choise of boot-loaders, grub (I think) and the older "lilo": try "lilo". I suspect it's better tested and works on a wider variety of machines. (My experience with installing: first time I tried graphical/grub, it acted like it installed, but it evidentally didn't put anything on the hard disk. Second try I went text/lilo, and it mostly just worked. Another possible differnce though: maybe I selected more packages as part of the "Custom" install than I did on my first try, I'm not sure.) Oh, and I've heard it suggested that you should stay away from Ext3... evidentally some people are reporting data corruption problems with it. To play it safe, choose Ext2 as your file system (the Ext3 default is new with Redhat 7.2). (Redhat has a history of shipping with stuff that isn't really ready for prime time.

hahahahahaha Me too. I finally got it to go away, but I don't know how. The odd thing is if I do an exportfs -r it will show the *non-existing* /cdrom, but the next time I do exportfs -r it may or may not be there... Now I am having a hard time getting it to show sub-filesfs' that are mounted. Even if I use the "nohide" option it still will not show the mounted fs directory, unless I specificaly export it.

RH7.1 install on HP Netserver hangs
Hi all, I'm trying to install Red Hat Linux 7.1 on a HP Netserver lp 2000r but having problems with the megaraid driver. If I try to use the driver disk from HP it just hangs at the "Loading megaraid driver" step. If I dont use the driver disk it will usually hang at the same step but about 1 in 7 reboots it will be accepted and the install continues as normal. But booting the newly installed system also only works about 1 in 7 attempts. It seems to be the driver usually tries to turn on 64 bit addressing which causes the box to hang. The times where it does work it disables the 64 bit addressing and seems perfectly happy then. Anyone got any suggestions on this? -- Regards, +---+-+ | Peter Kiem| E-Mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | Zordah IT | Mobile: +61 0414 724 766| | IT Consultancy &| WWW : www.zordah.net | | Internet Hosting| ICQ : "Zordah" 81 | +---+-+ ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Hi Hal, I'm playing with rpm building myself at the moment, and found this, which may or may nor help. http://www.rpmdp.org/rpmbook/node68.html#10414 - From that URL: The autoreqprov Tag The autoreqprov tag is used to control the automatic dependency processing performed when the package is being built. Normally, as each package is built, the following steps are performed: * All executable programs being packaged are analyzed to determine their shared library requirements. These requirements are automatically added to the package's requirements. * The soname of each shared library being packaged is automatically added to the package's list of ``provides'' information. By doing this, RPM reduces the need for package builders to manually add dependency information to their packages. However, there are times when RPM's automatic dependency processing may not be desirable. In those cases the autoreqprov tag can be used to disable automatic dependency processing. To disable automatic dependency processing, add the following line: AutoReqProv: no (The number zero may be used instead of no) Although RPM defaults to performing automatic dependency processing, the effect of the autoreqprov tag can be reversed by changing no to yes. (The number one may be used instead of yes) Might work. :) Good luck, - -D - -- pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/pgpkey.txt - -- -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8MjcCeMAUbzJhSVcRAun+AKCBmdKsGBlokFwk3/ND0YHQzGN6+gCgv1s/ gGu4li3zVAr95pw90RNdBY0= =6JN1 -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

I understand that when building a package from src.rpm, RPM groks some
system stuff, like libc, that it then lists as "Requires". But
how/where does it do this?
Case in point, is one I am trying to put together, but it is
automagically requiring /usr/local/bin/perl, which I don't have, and
is not referenced in the spec file at all.

puts it (/usr/bin).

Remote Syslog woes
We are using a single box in a RH 7.2 cluster for syslog. I have all machines logging to this machine correctly, but one problem. The syslog messages are showing up as follows: Jan 1 13:28:20 node-2 nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded Jan 1 13:28:20 node-2 nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded Jan 1 13:28:21 node-2 portmap: portmap shutdown succeeded This problem is that we have 6 racks and each rack has a node-2. We have no way of knowing which node-2 logged the message. The FQDN would be node-2.rack1.mydomain.com (some @#@*-4-brains VAR did the initial config and now it would be too much work to change) Why is syslog not logging the FQDN which is supposed to by default? (You have to strip otherwise with -s) nsswitch.conf is set to resolve hosts only from files. I can configure syslogd to log only IP addresses but this is undesireable. Does anyone have any tricks I can try??? Thanks, Chuck ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

No more compile after upgrade to 2.2.20
Happy new year everyone! I hope that there might be an answer for me. I upgraded to 2.2.20. Compiled ok, and booted ok. Now, I can't seem to compile anything. A typical error: /usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:28 (asm/sigcontext.h) No such file or directory. Since I am not a programmer, I have no clue as to what this means. This file *does* reside in /usr/src/linux/include/asm (which is a symlink to /usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386.) Please help; this might be enough for me to break Partition Magic back out.

Re: Problems getting RH 7.2 to boot properly
Ok, well, I've looked in the messages log and have found the following. It looks like the xfs is trying to start and can't (cause there is no sound card) and then it seems to start a chain reaction with all other services. Sometimes I can actually get into the OS and start X, but a few minutes into the session, the mouse and keyboard freeze and I have to physically shut the machine down. Any ideas what I can do to fix this? I assume turning off xfs on startup is my first step.

problems with IOMega ZIP, CDROM on 2.4.x
I have a problem with linux on FIC VA503+, latest BIOS. On 2.4 kernels I cannot use cdrom and IOMega ZIP. I MUST boot with hdd=none or hdd=noprobe (hdd is ZIP ATAPI 100) if I want to boot succesfully. As to the CDROM, installation from CDROM works succesfully. But, when boot I cannot mount cd (hdc), when I try it, then system halts. The problem may be in detection of PIO/DMA mode. When booting, it detects DMA on all channels. I tried to change PCs setup parametres, but with no results. regards, Martin Reiser ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
Can booting from emergency floppy put machine in an "unstable" state?
I booted from my emergency floppy, created under 7.2 with the 2.4.9-14 kernel, to be sure it worked. I use LILO as my boot loader. I then uninstalled grub, which I no longer needed. Then, upon next boot, I started having gnome login problems under my user (not root) account: the dreaded log in twice problem. My xsession-errors file was showing processes, running, XIM Debug problems, xscreensaver running under root, type stuff. I got this fixed, (I hope) by clearing out tmp files.

ARE THERE ANY LINUX TAPE EXPERTS OUT > THERE? I would appreciate your suggestions. Please, no need to shout. I do mot consider myself a tape expert, but since I have had both ATAPI and later SCSI tapes working under linux, I can help. First make sure it's getting recognized. Check /var/log/messages - it should shouw up as /dev/ht0 Second, make symlink to that device from /dev/tape. This just lets programs like mt use it without having to specify the device. Third, unless you have compiled your own kernel, the ide-tape module should get loaded automatically when you try use the tape. If you have built your own kernel make sure it is included either as a module or compiled in. You can do a lsmod to see if the module is loaded. Try and use it. You can do things like mt status mt rewind mt retension etc. If they work, try tarring something to it tar czf /dev/tape /etc tar tzf /dev/tape Let us know if any of these steps fail and we can help determine why. If you are in fact mistaken about this being atapi, everything I just said is still valid, except the device will appear as /dev/st0. One last thing. I have not done this myself, but have heard that using scsi emulation for the atapi drive works well, and allows you to use backup programs that usually won't work with atapi drives because of differences in the wayt mt treats the drives.

If XftConfig doesn't exist, the script just exits. The fonts are still added, and should be available for the font server. I'm assuming here that RH 6.2 uses the fontserver? I can't remember, to be honest, and I don't have a 6.2 machine available at present. /etc/X11/XftConfig is used for antialiased font support in XFree86 versions >= 4.0.2. If your version is older, just ignore the warning. > I do not have /etc/X11/XftConfig, it's perhaps something special for > 7.2, so I'm not sure whether I change the 'fetchmsttfonts' script, so > that it says: > > - > echo -n "Adding true type fonts to /etc/X11/XF86Config...

Subject: Re: samba printing
Hi Michael:
At any O.S. the printing proces has two stages clearly defined:
The capture of printout of any application and encoding to format a file
with
te appropiate language to the printer.
The spooling to route the file created above, to reach the printig device,
without no one judgement, just as printing a file to the apropiate path.
Samba server doesnt make any process over the file what is arriving to it,
just spool it, and any more. That you dont worry about the driver that Linux
uses to print, this is only the first stage that i told you before. This
driver is only needed to generate the file that will be spooled to print
locally.
You'll generate the first stage at your Windows machine, with its respective
driver.

Problems getting RH 7.2 to boot properly
Hello all, I have setup several RH machines and the latest one I've got has stumped me. The stats of the machine are: Athlon 1 Ghz 128 MB RAM 40GB Maxtor HD Transcend Motherboard All equipment is brand new and has been exchanged a few times cause certain components weren't working right, but now everything seems ok. I am having all kinds of (what seems to be) memory leaks or something like that, during bootup. I am attaching my boot log, for those that can help, and can send other logs if needed..

Re: samba printing
Hi Michael:
At any O.S. the printing proces has two stages clearly defined:
The capture of printout of any application and encoding to format a file with
te appropiate language to the printer.
The spooling to route the file created above, to reach the printig device,
without no one judgement, just as printing a file to the apropiate path.
Samba server doesnt make any process over the file what is arriving to it,
just spool it, and any more. That you dont worry about the driver that Linux
uses to print, this is only the first stage that i told you before. This
driver is only needed to generate the file that will be spooled to print
locally.
You'll generate the first stage at your Windows machine, with its respective
driver.
Greetings

Running out of memory on RH7.1
Hi and happy new year to all I have been following the amount of free memory on my RH7.1 system and have watched it steadily decrease from 320Mb to 124Mb as reported by Meminfo over the last 2 weeks. Should I be concerned? I see that TOP displays a completely different set of memory statics. Is there a way I can flush the memory without rebooting the PC?

Re: Windows True Type Fonts installer package
Hi, Is the XftConfig in Rh 7.2 (is it there?) the same as the /etc/X11/XF86Config in Redhat 6.2? I have here Redhat 6.2, and I just installed xf86ttfontool, but after reading 'fetchmsttfonts' it seems, this program works only on redhat 7.2 or so: it says (end of the file): --- [ ... ] if [ -f /etc/X11/XftConfig ]; then echo -n "Adding true type fonts to /etc/X11/XftConfig... " echo "dir \"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype\"" >> /etc/X11/XftConfig echo "done" else echo "Warning: /etc/X11/XftConfig doesn't seem to exist." echo "XFree86 versions prior to 4.0.2 didn't use this file." echo "done" exit 1 fi - I do not have /etc/X11/XftConfig, it's perhaps something special for 7.2, so I'm not sure whether I change the 'fetchmsttfonts' script, so that it says: - echo -n "Adding true type fonts to /etc/X11/XF86Config... " echo "dir \"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype\"" >> /etc/X11/XF86Config instead of what the script says above per default -- or whether I try to add the truetype path later manually to /etc/X11/XF86Config without changing the 'fetchmsttfonts' script. Not being sure, but trying to be careful before messing up things here ... :) Thanks in anticipation Regards Wolfgang On Jan 1, 2002, 06:26 (-0500) Dale Kosan wrote: > The following page has xf86ttfontool wich will download and install true > type fonts, is this what you were looking for? > > [ ... ] -- http://www.geocities.com/wolfgangpfeiffer/w3m.html -- END TRANSMISSION -- ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

setting env variables in RH 7.1
Hi all, I'm getting tired of the standard prompt and would like to create my own. According to everything I've read, this is done by changing the PS1 variable - which should be located in /etc/profile (for global change). But when I look at the profile file, I find other variables, but not PS1. Using the 'set' command, I've found PS1 as well as 'Command_Prompt' exist. ** does Redhat store these someplace else ??? ** where do I find PS1 so I can change it? ** is the 'Command_Prompt' listing I saw in the 'set' ouput and actual variable, or is it just a comment ? thanks Steve RH 7.1, AMD Athlon T-bird 950Mhz,256M RAM,40Gb EIDE HDD,VoddDoo3 16Mb AGP Graphics,soundblaster, etc ... rebuilding after disasterous anaconda crash duuring attempt to upgrade to 7.2. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

red hat mailing lists for previous betas
i just got an apparently automated reminder from red hat about my membership on a number of RH mailing lists, which includes (i think) lists related to previous betas, like fisher and wolverine (at least one of those was a beta, right?) i'm curious -- is there any value to a beta-related mailing list once the official release comes out? more to the point, is there any reason red hat doesn't just delete those lists? after all, is there anyone at red hat still interested in hearing about potential bugs in a beta? just curious. rday ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
Windows True Type Fonts installer package
Dear all, Couple months ago, I saw there was a package in the featured packages download section of Redhat website which dealt with downloading, installing and setting up windows true type fonts into my Linux box. I can't quite remember the name of the package but there was something about the origin of the package which was a tool part of Suse distro. Today I checked the featured download section again, and it was gone. I need it to display some of the Java applets which I assume were designed using Windows ttf only for example in the following websites: http://www.detik.com and http://www.kompas.com. If anyone happen to notice the name of the package and it's location, could you please let me know? I personally have got the package in my other Linux box which is very far from the place where I am now. TIA Regards, Alimin _ Do You Yahoo!?
