[CentOS] Centos 5 card reader automount

To this point, whenever I've plugged a storage device (flash drive, mp3 player) into a USB plug, it's magically mounted and I get an icon on my desktop. I've just got a card reader and it doesn't automount. I can mount it manually with "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/temp" and that works fine. I would pre

[CentOS] Kernel panic installing CentOS 5.2 in Parallels on iMac

I'm unable to get much past the "boot:" prompt in the installer. The panic appears to be in powernowk8_init which according to http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008-0612.html has a recently-fixed null-pointer dereference. That errata is from August 4; the latest CentOS install ISOs are from June

[CentOS] buildinstall cannot find modules

When using buildinstall and CentOS 5.2 to create my own CD minus a bunch of unneeded RPM's and plus a few of my custom RPM's I find that the install CD that gets build does not install an initrd which renders the system unbootable. I also notice that when I run buildinstall with the -debug option
