I am having install problems using the i386 6.4 Centos Live Cd/DVD's.
Has anyone had kernel panics after install finishes and when rebooting?
i7 Laptop with install on USB HD (USB3)
-------
would like to do Both if it is possible.
But first I would like to setup a USB external HD with centos and
install a schoolserver on it. As a test system.
This could be booted on my system76 i7 laptop (gazelle) using a wired
and wireless connection.
I have a working install of os885 (11.3.1) on the XO-1.5 Adam lent me
for testing.
Getting a current Sugar-Desktop (Dextrose?) to run on centos would be
great. The long term stability of centos is very attractive.
Please contact Peter robinson about the possibilities. He did an initial
try as sugar 0.88.1 on Centos as referenced below. But found that it had
too many missing dependencies.
Cordially

If this is referring to whether XSCE will run on centos, that's a
different question that whether sugar-destop will run on centos.
But maybe I'm responding with insufficient information about the question.

Adam;
Peter Robinson (usually on #fedora-arm) asked me in a PM IRC
session today to have you contact him:
<satellit_e> has anything newer been done on centos
sugar-desktop?
http://pkgs.org/centos-6-rhel-6/epel-i386/sugar-0.88.1-1.el6.noarch.rpm.html
<pbrobinson> no, we tried it but the dependencies are too old
<pbrobinson> so it was decided it was more pain than it was worth
<satellit_e> ok that was what I just found....: )
<pbrobinson> yes, I think 0.88 would likely work and it's
likely from our attempt but 0.88 is ancient so we should
likely just kill it
<satellit_e> I like the long time stability of centos ....too bad
<pbrobinson> It has it's uses but unfortunately because sugar
is moving quite fast "long term stability" and "needed and
wanted features" tend to be mutually exclusive. RHEL-7 (and
hence likely Cent-OS 7) will likely be close to supporting
what we need for Sugar 1.0 so that might suffice.... but then
I said that with RHEL-6 too
<satellit_e> I have been playing with schoolserver DX3 and
Adam wanted to know if centos might be used but Way over my
head I fear
<pbrobinson> ask adam to email me
<satellit_e> ok
<pbrobinson> if he wants that discussion
<pbrobinson> presumably DX3 is dextrose?
<satellit_e> yes
<satellit_e> olpc....
<pbrobinson> OK, is it currently fedora based?
<pbrobinson> (I've never used Dextrose)
<satellit_e> I have tested it in Ubuntu and on my XO-1.5 and
as a vdi in VirtualBox
<pbrobinson> not sure what that means
<satellit_e>
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Ubuntu#Ubuntu_12.04.2_LTS_-_Dextrose_Sugar_Live
<pbrobinson> no, what I mean is the dextrose distro derived
from Fedora or something else
<pbrobinson> not what platforms you ran it on
<satellit_e> looks like fedora
<pbrobinson> OK
<satellit_e> basically for XO-1.5 1.75
<pbrobinson> if he's really interested in an educated answer
tell him to ping me an email
