Fedora Installation :: Upgrade RH9 To F10 - Install Fails - Installer Fails Media Check Due To "errors"

Jan 23, 2009

I am trying to upgrade RH9 to F10. I have downloaded dvd iso image i386. The SHA1 integrity check passes. The installer fails media check due to "errors". I did an independent verification of the DVD and zero errors found. Download was from Fedora's own torrent, so files should be verified anyway. If I bypass the media check I get the message : Running anaconda 11.4.1.62 the Fedora system installer - please wait.....

Red Hat :: Booting Centos 5.4 - CentOS CD Not Found In Any Of The Media Drives

Apr 7, 2010

Since RHEL is similar to CentOS posting it here.

Upon booting from DVD, i get the below error: "CentOS CD Not found in any of the media drives. Please insert CentOS CD and press OK."

I have IDE Sony DVD RW AW-G170.

BIOS Setting:

Downloaded the CentOS-5.4-i386-bin-DVD image from centos.org from DVD.torrent using bittorrent file.
When booting from the DVD, it gives me the boot prompt:

Upon pressing enter, the log messages of the boot detect the media drive as: hdc: Sony DVD RW AW-G170 IDE ATAPI CD.

The below steps occur:
1) Select the keyboard type: selected us

2) Select the Language : selected us

3) Select the image:
- Local CDROM
- Hard Drive
- NFS Image
...
...
selected Local CDROM

Then the above error "CentOS CD Not found in any of the media drives. Please insert CentOS CD and press OK."

The booting steps does not ask the for media check step.

The below methods have been tried to solve the problem:

- Burnt the image in another 2 DVDs but the same error "CentOS CD Not found in any of the media drives. Please insert CentOS CD and press OK."

- Upon burning the DVD image , selected the DVD read speed: 8x. Upon burning the DVD selected 18x for burning. and then tried to boot with that DVD

- At the boot prompt entered : linux hdc=cdrom replaced hdc=hdb but the error remains.

CentOS 5 :: Installing Fuppes Media Server Onto CentOS

Jun 4, 2009

I've been trying to install the Fuppes media server onto CentOS and have had a few difficulties. I had to do a build from the source (svn build 578), then configure, make and make install. So far so good.Once I try to run fuppes, I get the error:[ERROR] Failed to bind socket to : 8.15.7.107:0.The documentation I've searched so far suggests that there is a config file that needs to be set with the appropriate ip address, but the file doesn't exist as the program hasn't started up yet!

CentOS 5 :: How To Modify The 5 Installer

Jul 18, 2009

After booting machine with CentOS 5. DVD, initrd.img will do some command to initialize everything to start installing CentOS. At this time, I need put some command so that I can enter some values and store them in a file. After finishing installation, Cent OS will read information from this file to do some tasks.I think I should modify initrd.img in Cent OS DVD but can not because this file is in binary (compiled file) .

Server :: CentOS Installer -not- To Use LVM In A Kickstart?

Dec 14, 2010

Does anyone know of a way to tell the CentOS installer -not- to use LVM in a kickstart? We've been using a system that lets us define which particular drives to use during the installation as part of our deployment system. This does not work now that LVM is the 'default' in CentOS. I've looked over the options and I see how to FORCE particular LVM configurations, but I see no way to just turn it off.

CentOS 5 :: Prevent Device-mapper From Loading In Installer

Mar 5, 2009

I am trying to prevent the dm_mod and friends from loading during install.I am installing by PXE boot with NFS and kickstart files over http. This works fine for other machines.Ok, I have a Dell PowerEdge 2900 III with 8gig ram, PERC 6/i raid controller.The raid has 8 1TB drives in it, so the total size of the device is >2TB.There is also an SATA drive, which is NOT on the raid controller.

The problem is, I want to install CentOS on the SATA drive. The SATA drive comes up as a device-mapper drive, with a big crazy device name.This is ok, but the problem is, when the system goes to boot, it just says 'missing operating system'.I can't boot from the raid because it is large enough to require a GPT partition, and CentOS says it can't boot from a GPT partition.The SATA drive would work FINE if I could just prevent the damn device mapper from loading, so that I could install on the SATA drive in ordinary SATA mode.

I have tried re-squashing the stage2.img with /etc/modprobe.conf with alias dm_mod off and such, no luck.I also tried adding an /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file, that did not work either.I also tried putting blacklist= dm_mod in the kickstart file, but that seems to be a fedora-only option and it kills my install. any ideas on preventing the dm_mod et. al. from loading at install time??

CentOS 5 :: Installer Crashes With On-board Realtek 8111DL Enabled

Oct 27, 2009

I have a Biostar TA785GE which as I understand it, has a Realtek 8111DL on-board.

Booting with the default label from the 64-bit installation DVD crashes before any user input, with indecipherable text on-screen (text mode, not X11). Symptoms were the same with the Fedora 11 32-bit installation DVD and the Fedora 12 Live 32-bit CD. Booting with "linux text" mode shows a kernel panic in ":r8169:rtl8169_init_one+0x369/0x9d4" from "pci_device_probe+0x100/0x180".

Disabling the on-board NIC allowed the boot to proceed, and get as far as detecting the hard drive partitions (where I stopped it since Ubuntu is installed).

Ubuntu 9.04 Workstation(Desktop?) install DVD worked fine, and I've installed it and am using it to enter this. From Ubuntu 9.04 on this hardware:

- "uname -r" shows
Linux snoopy 2.6.28-16-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 20 19:48:32 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- "lsmod | egrep '816|811'" shows:

CentOS 5 :: Why The Cdrom Always Mounted Under /media

Aug 10, 2010

I went through some conf files under /etc. But cannot find out why cdrom always mounted under /media? Also there is one line in /etc/auto.misc:

cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom

Does that mean the cdrom should be mounted under /misc/cd?

CentOS 5 :: Installing Media Tomb On 5.6

Apr 10, 2011

First step is installing and enabling the epel repository. (This is done here: [URL] Next step is to do the actual install " yum install media tomb" Next you have two choices to setup priorities with the repositories, or you can go to /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.conf edit using vim or your flavor of text editor find all instances in this repository of enabled=1 and set them to enabled=0

Or set up priorities in the repos. Next is to edit the config for mediatomb by going to /etc/mediatomb.conf ## Network interface on which the server will run, you need to edit this! MT_INTERFACE="NOTSET" and change the "NOTSET" to the interface you are going to use to. To start media tomb as sudo " service mediatomb start"

General :: Media / USBDisk Error In CentOS 4.0?

Oct 12, 2010

When I boot CentOS 4.0 desktop tower, I get opening error message: Can't Display Location - Couldn't find "/media/usbdisk". I suspect this is why music CDs and Movie DVDs won't play. I hope I can replace the single missing element (driver) without being forced to re-install the entire OS, or a newer version. I'm just now hoping to become a regular Linux user, after years of occasional dabbling. Windows XP is okay, but even Windows fanatics (and the computer-ignorant who trade stocks, etc., using laptops) are repulsed by post-XP "Win-doze" glitches.

2- Certain Supermicro boards support IPMI (Kvm over LAN) and Serial over LAN and most notably Virtual Media Over Lan. I am wondering if there would be any problem installing CentOS using the Virtual Media over Lan.

CentOS 5 :: C5 Media Repo Is Broken / Recover That?

Feb 20, 2011

I'm kind of hoping that many of the apps I am looking for live on this mirror. It was installed by default by CentOS 5.5 when I installed.

My repo file is included at the bottom. Checking the path http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.5/ there is no media dir which would explain the 404 error I get when I try to enable the repository. The question is where does it live or is this repo defunct? code...

CentOS 5 :: Server To Stream Media Over Local Network

Jun 14, 2010

I'm using CentOS 5.5 as a media server to stream media content over my local network. Currently i'm having problem while installing last.fm scrobbler.

Here is a sample output:
yum localinstall xmms-scrobbler-0.4.0-7.fc11.i586.rpm
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Setting up Local Package Process
Examining xmms-scrobbler-0.4.0-7.fc11.i586.rpm: xmms-scrobbler-0.4.0-7.fc11.i586
Marking xmms-scrobbler-0.4.0-7.fc11.i586.rpm to be installed
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile .....

The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
Upon searching my hard disk this is what i get:
find / -mount -name libcurl*
/usr/share/man/man3/libcurl-easy.3.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/libcurl-tutorial.3.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/libcurl-share.3.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/libcurl-errors.3.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/libcurl-multi.3.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/libcurl.3.gz
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3
/usr/lib/libcurl.a
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3.0.0
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libcurl.pc
/usr/lib/libcurl.so

So it tells me that I need libcurl.so.4, but I couldn't find any suitable rpm binaries for it. The only rpm that i found was for Suse and Mandrake. How to set this up, so that i can get a fully functional media server.
