CentOS 5 Server :: Configure ISO's For PXE Booting - Pick An Iso From The List It Says "Could Not Find Ramdisk Image"?
May 3, 2011
I have a fresh install of COS5.6 installed a test laptop. I have following instructions to set up the PXE server based on the following: http:[url]......The base PXE installation seems to work fine (The menu labeled CentOS 5.6 works fine ). The whole purpose of this was to be able to boot iso's like Hirens and Imaging software ISO's.The issue is that whenever i try to pick an iso from the list it just says "Could not find ramdisk image:" [path to iso][path to iso] being either of the two iso i had set up to test this.
I would like to think that i made a typo but i can find one. The files i used are from the source of syslinux v4.0.4.The following information should be pertinent
Contents of /tftpboot/pxelinux.0/default[code].....
I have a limited experice with linux in an enterprise environment and looking for any direction as to what to do about this.

I need to get LILO to boot a ramdisk in which the root file system is on /dev/ramdisk. I have tried many iterations of lilo.conf files. The following is one that I would think would work because it worked under 2.4 kernels:
default=linux
boot=/dev/hda
install=/mnt/flash/boot/boot.b

Is it possible to list/find/compare the program versions on a Centos system, against Redhat/Centos Errata/Security/Bug lists? Sort of looking for a way to make sure that all the packages on a system are ok, and not a security risk-- Without having to update every package. A pseudo code, in my mind is:

In order to get my Ubuntu system up and running on the Internet I need to install Sakis3g, and when installing, the system does not pick up ./Configure. My first thought was that the Build Essentials were not present but turns out that they are already installed, so now I'm at a dead end as I cannot finish my install. Has anyone else had any problems similar to this one?

In order to not post into the wrong forum, I am wondering if an issue related to performing a PXE based NFS install can be posted here, or does it belong in the networking forum? Seems that I've seen both, and I've done several searches using parameters/error messages that I'm seeing and can't seem to find a post that relates.
I have results of "./getinfo.sh network", and other necessary config file info ready to post, but want to make certain on correct forum.

I currently run Windows Server 2008 at my office, but I'm looking to test Samba as a PDC for future reference/consulting work. Before I go and try to configure Samba, I wanted to ask if anyone can think of pitfalls I would run into and perhaps recommend a better setup:
<10 PCs running either Windows XP, Vista, or 7.
VirtualBox running Debian (planning on swapping for Fedora) on a Windows XP Home computer.
Computers are connected to a large switch, which is connected to a wireless router. The Windows server doesn't employ ICS (essentially is just a $1500 PDC ). where I could find a .ovm format image of a windows server installation? I'm guessing vmware would work in this regard, but I'm not fond of using purposely crippled software.

My question is how do I get a cron job to pick up the user's ~/.my.cnf? If the user runs the shell script, everything is fine. The cron entry has the same user run the job, and I've tried #!/bin/bash -l in the shell script with no success.
Here are the details:
I have a bash shell script that launches a Python program. The python program issues an external shell mysql -e command.
I don't want the python code to use use -u user-name -pMyPassword, db-name, because this is contained in ~/.my.cnf. The python code doesn't have to use these parameters if run interactively, but does have to if run from cron.

I have one server at home, connected through a router that gives me a static IP:192.168.1.2 - My PC192.168.1.3 - CentOS serverI enabled the port 80 into router forwarding system and I can connect properly to CentOS server, using the IP my internet provider gives me. My router automatically forwards a changed IP to my dyndns.com account so I can also access the server through a domain name (I pay to have it linked to one of my domains).My next step is to configure the mail server (dovecot) , so I can send emails from my local server(192.168.1.3).I was wondering if anyone has any tutorial links or tips to have the mail server configured through a home internet provider + home router.

i have a Centos 5.5 server that some staff have installed some extra packages on. I'm in the process of building a 5.6 server and want to include the packages / updates from the previous server. Can this be done easily? Was thinking of listing everything in a text file then using yum install to populate anything that the old server has that the new one doesnt?

I have a CentOS 5.5 server that has just recently been updated to 5.6 running PostgreSQL 8.4 and Drupal for an internal website. The server is also acting as a shared network storage between the Linux server and Windows desktops with Samba.
I just recently purchased a license to run Symantec Backup Exec System Restore 2010 for Linux and the only operating systems that are supported are RedHat and Suse Linux.
Does anyone know of a nice open source solution that we can use to create backup images of the server?
In the event of a server crash, we want to be able to rebuild the server via a bit-by-bit backup image.
The CentOS 5.6 is 32bit

Installed CentOS 5.5 on VMware ESXi server running vsphere 4.1. Installed fine and picked the E1000 network adapter. But can't get the adapter to become active and pick up an IP address. Has anyone done this before? I can't get it to work. When i was testing CentOS out i used VirtualBox and worked fine using bridged networking but just can't seem to get this network card working.I've put some pictures of the config i've got.http:[url]....

i'm teacher and have been assigned to take care a small computer lab in my school.in my computer lab there is a centos box with 2 network cards, switches and computers.at this moment all the computer can access the internet directly without connected to the router or server..(bypassing the centos box).so now i would like to make my life more " difficult" where i want all the computers access internet through my centos box so that i could have a better internet usage management.
I've been reading some forum and even centos document regarding establish networking but it seem difficult for me to understand all the terms and jargon overnight.I also have been try to configure the 2 nic using the "trial and errors" approach but no luck..i'm really hoping that someone could guide me so that i could configure the 2 nic correctly hence my centosbox could be more beneficial..below is the scheme how my network will be..internet------>modem--------->centosbox--------->switches------->computers(eth0)(eth1

Is there any way to make a disk image of an active partition? I have to get a complete backup (partitions, MBR, all data files) of my server without bringing it down to do it. I want to have a backup that, in the event of a system failure of any sort, I can quickly restore onto a new, bare hard disk and have the system back up and running. The windows equivalent of this would be something like Drive Image XML, this is the functionality I am looking for.
