May 1, 2011
1.Can I install Suse Linux and RHEL 5 on same system (Laptop)?
How many OS can I install in one laptop?
My laptop name in Compaq Presario CQ42-462TU i5 M460 2.53GHz 3GB RAM 320GB Hard Disk
2. Can I install 64bit RHEL 6 and 32 bit RHEL 5.5 on same laptop?
I have RHEL 6 installed on my laptop, but when I try to install Suse Linux after hitting installtion button it starts loading lernel but then it blacks out and stays there for years.
It also shows some ACPI error when I tried to install second LINUX OS .
3.What should I do? Should I change my newly brought laptop?
I tried installing RHEL5 server edition in my laptop and it couldnt detect the video card and so the installation continued in the blue screen and i didnt get the usual GUI for installation so i discontinued the installation.can anyone help me how to i install this.Pls i am in need of RHEL in my laptop.
I have a Hewlett Packard Pavilion dv5-1125nr laptop containing factory loaded Windows Vista. I have a lot of hard disk space on it and I wanna install Linux. But I don't know which version/distribution will work on this laptop.
Is there a system admin tool for RHEL on montioring and logging system memory used and released that can dump to a log file?I'm having an issue with memory not being released when an application is closed. I need to have a tool monitor and log so I can troubleshoot to verify that it's an application not the OS.
I bought this laptop several years ago. It had Vista. Just long enough for me to download SUSe, nuke and pave the HD and install Linux. Recently I upgraded from 1 GB to 4 GB of RAM, the maximum that is allowed given the motherboard (based on from what I am able to learn the Intel 945 chipset).
After upgrading to 4 GB, the machine (according to "My Computer") only sees 2.9 GB. I understand that under an earlier version of the BIOS that the machine would not recognize the RAM correctly. Additionally the "My Computer" page lists the display as "Intel 945GM". My problem is that I can find no Linux utility to flash the BIOS on this machine-- Toshiba only provides the BIOS included in an .exe file for either XP or Vista. I am hesitant to use the BIOS for the Intel 945 series motherboards from their site.
Gnome is falling apart and I've had a lot of nagging problems that I couldn't overcome.I'm thinking of wiping the OpenSuse partitions and doing a clean install without wiping the windows partition.I initially setup using the 11.0/XP dual boot FAQ in the How To forum.I have my Home directory backed up on an external HD. Might try KDE next go-round or KDE & Gnome as separate users. I have 11.2 i586 installation DVD.
I'm Pab, just like to know, How can I allow a new user to run specific software like sqlplus.
Scenario:
I have an oradb@database user where i can execute sqlplus /nolog command, but when i created a new user named allan@database the bash says....-bash:sqlplus: command not found.
I install RHEL 5.1 on my system. But my Ethernet card is not detected. I found my Ethernet card is of "ATTANSIC Technology corp L1 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter(rev b0). I already downloaded the driver. Someone tell me step by step process, how to install this driver over RHEL 5.1.
Hardware issue forced me to restore Win7. Installed EasyBCD to boot into openSUSE, no work. Boot puppy, it shows space where SUSE should be as unallocated space. I think Puppy doesn't see ext4 though. Can't boot live KDE off USB for some reason, though I originally installed from that exact medium. Tried ACPI=off and nomodeset. Error says trouble mounting clic filesystem, mounted as read only. Something like that. Then reboot 120secs, which it never actually does. I don't want to reinstall SUSE if I don't have to.
The Completely Fair Queuing (cfq) scheduler in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5appears to have worse I/O read performance than in version 4. It appears as though the Completely Fair Queuing I/O scheduler (cfq) has a regression and thus exhibits reduced read-side throughput which can affect performance for both local and NFS mounted file systems.
One way to mitigate this is to set the cfq's slice_idle parameter to zero. To change this value, execute the following command echo 0 > slice_idle in the /sys/block directory appropriate for your situation, as shown below:
echo 0 > /sys/block/hda/queue/iosched/slice_idle
We are using NFS file systems in RHEL 5.3. I would like to know how to find which /dev/Device is being used by the NFS file systems, so that I could try setting the slice_idle to '0' to see if there is any difference in performance? In /etc/fstab I only see the actual NAS volumes for the NFS file systems.
is possible to edited the default RHEL CD to have it automatically install RHEL based off of a kickstart file that I will store locally on the CD. My plan would be to put a cd in a server and have the OS automatically being installed.
Main reason I am using openSUSE currently is because my Windows system's went bad. I haven't been able to easily restore and will probably have to do clean windows install. I want to make sure my entire openSuse system (application/OS setting/etc) backup so I can easily restore of it fast. Since this type of back takes awhile, I would preferably like do this while I am still logged into SUSE. I am where to disk cloning thing like clonezilla, but looks like I would need turn of my system entirely to get this done.
Currently my SUSE root and home are in a partition with another NTFS partition on my hard drive. I really don't want to use 'dd' to clone the entire hard disk. I would much rather store of required partitions in other locations. Hopefully, there is easy to get this done without too much of effort and time.
I was a window vista user. I wanted to install suse into my laptop so i shirk a free partition (around 70-80GB free partition) to install suse.After I had installed suse, I found out that I fail to boot my window vista operation system. It had gave me several choices...
I have RHEL 3 and Win XP Installed in my P.C?I want to uninstall RHEL 3 and install RHEL 9 without affecting XP.how can i do this and also where can i download free RHEL 9 version or any other latest linux distribution for free?
I want to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) on my Acer laptop? Is this possible? I looked on the compatibility list but it seems that I can only install this OS on a server machine? Is that true?
I have a program that i want to install on only RHEL 3 and 4. It does not support RHEL 5. How do i check if a Reh Hat OS is 3 or 4 and not 5.Similarly i need to check this for SUSE 9 and 10. For RHEL, i am trying to see uname -a and also cat /proc/redhat-release. How do i make sure that if the target system is RedHat 3 or 4. and in case of SUSE, how i decide for SUSE 9 or 10 and not other.
I am having problems with suse 11.3 after upgrade. system locks, so would like to know what logs to start looking into for clues as to what is going on.
I have an Acer Laptop and I am trying to use Linux Redhat 5 on it but for some reason the NIC is not detected by Linux. It is a bit surprising to me that the same problem was seen in my desktop computer but after changing the NIC to a different slot the Linux OS detected the NIC and it is working fine but my laptop still has the same problem.
From troubleshooting point of view:
1. Installed Linux multiple times but it didn't work. 2. Tried to add the hardware (NIC) but it didn't work.
Note: The NIC was working fine when I first installed Linux but after sometime it didn't. The laptop is dual boot (Windows & Linux) when I boot via windows the NIC works fine but not with Linux.
NIC Details:
Device Type: Network Adapter Manufacturer: Broadcom Location: PCI bus 2, device 0, function 0
