I want to install a Centos 5.0 Virtualbox for Windows 7 x64. Can someone please let me know where I can go to get that, because I would like to have the virtualbox to further understand how LINUX works. I have taken a course in Redhat Enterprise Linux Computing Essentials, and I enjoyed using LINUX. So that is why I am searching for a 5.0 free download of Virtualbox.

VirtualBox is successfully installed on my openSUSE 11.2 and the guest OS is Win XP. I am looking for a way to acomplish two things from the guest OS:-use USB -use internet connection
On the first one, I've run into a howto for openSUSE 11.2 that says usb access for guest OSes in VBox is supported only in the binary (non-free) version. Since I am running the free one, does that mean I am out of luck on usb matter?
On the second one, I am puzzled as well. WinXP image is already installed and I tried to configure its networking via the "settings" section in VBox which gives me several options out of which none is for setting up IP's. How do I get internet connection that openSUSE host already has to share it with the guest OS within VBox?
i would like to install CentOS 5.3 on my VirtualBox?

I just ran into a weird problem with a CentOS 5.5 64-bit server running VirtualBox 3.2.8 (I would run Vmware Server 2.0.2 if not for the well known fact that Vmware doesn't care about its Server line anymore and it doesn't run on CentOS > 5.3 without major splits). I currently have two guests in that VirtualBox setup, a CentOS 5.5 64-bit and a Fedora 13 64-bit. The CentOS 5.5 guest shows less memory available than configured. If, for example, I give the virtual machine 512MB of memory the guest OS only recognizes 380MB. If I give it 768MB it only recognizes 637MB, and so on. I don't have that problem on the Fedora guest - 1024MB configured, 1024MB available.

I decided to take centos 5.5 for a testdrive. I download the live cd iso and attempted to boot the system via virtualbox on my mac os 10 system. I get the blue boot screen and choosing either the graphical boot or text boot gets me no where, the blue screen remains and nothing happens). Virtualbox is able to boot other linux systems fine so I am not sure if this is a centos issue or centos/virtualbox issue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedJust installed and started to use the suse11.4 two weeks ago when my Win7 broke down. Now I got a new Win7 recovery disc from my laptop manufacturer, and want to install a Win7 accompanying with the suse11.4.
My question is how to clear up a free space in HD to install win7? Currently, I have 3 partitions that are sda1, sda2 and sda3 with space 2G(swap), 20G(root) and 270G(home) respectively. I want to free up half space from sda3 to install Win7, how to do it without delete the data on it? One weird thing is that my HD totally is 320G, but when I installed SUSE, only 300G was usable and the other 20G is missing until now. The fdisk -l command info. is showed below:
I have the following function on my xmlrpc server side.
The registration of this function is done as follows from the main function:
The above function makes the server segfault some where on the return path and client gets the response:
Here is what GDB shows when server segfaults....
However if I remove the line "xmlrpc_strfree (node_name);" then server does not segfault and client receives the response correctly. In the xmlrpc-c code it clearly says " Return the string in newly malloc'ed storage that Caller must free." in xmlrpc_data.c::xmlrpc_read_string() which is the function that gets called from xmlrpc_parse_value().
Was wondering if anyone can explain briefly the relationship of "cache" and free memory in the "free" memory command.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI've got a question on free disk space. I'm currently running CentOS 5.5 on in Xenserver virtual environment. We've had an issue with disk space. My question is as follows: - from a ssh connection i run df -h this gives the value of 90% used leaving me with 9GB. If I use system monitor via a VNC connection the free disk space value is 20GB free on the same volume. Which one is correct? I do use SNMP to monitor the same volume and should alert me when < 10% is free I know this works as I set the alert threshold to < 90% I get an alert.

I have installed a recent version of CentOS 5 (kernel is 2.6.18-128.el5) as VM in VirtualBox on a Windows 2008 server. When CentOS is totally idle, the CPU on the host (windows) machine is totally pegged from the VirtualBox process. I have read on some other forums that this is a problem with the clock running at 1000Hz and that recompiling the kernel configured with the clock at 100Hz will fix, or at least minimize the problem.
Has anyone else seen this problem? Can someone point me to a good set of instructions on rebuilding the kernel? I followed one set of instructions, but it wasn't for CentOS. After I building everything I was supposed to and copying files over the System.map* and vmlinuz* in the /boot directory (I think I screwed up that one), I went to modify the lilo.conf per the instructions, but I couldn't find it.
I installed centos 5.3 with last update in Virtualbox 3.06. Everything looks quite good except the unix time. It's very fast than normal. I even couldn't make ntpd work.
[Code]...
I also modified the menu.lst files as following: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-164.el5 ro root=/dev/vg00/lv00 rhgb quiet divider=10 But it still dosen't work. how to sync the local time in the virtualbox? It looks like a bug in current kernel as other linux with newer kernel don't have such problem.
I am running a Centos 5 x86_64 guest with VirtualBox 3.1.2.The virtio modules are loaded, but the virtual interface is not detected.Anyone else use the new virtio network drivers with virtual box and know how to get this to work?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed the CentOS 5.4 Virtualbox, I downloaded the dvd.iso on my (windows xp) and I installed it straight from there.
Installation went ok, but whenever I start the Centos it boots from the dvd.iso and force me to install or upgrade it again.
I updated my system to the latest version - 5.5. After that I could not install VirtualBox. I was thinking, trying to fix, googling... it over for hours... Finally I found the reason. VirtualBox installer searches for the source kernel at /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5/build, and it can not. Look into /lib/modules, I have some kernels such as:
- 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5
- 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5debug
- 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5xen
... and more old ones.
At that time, I booted on 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5 kernel. But inside that directory, there is no build or source (directory/ file). Then I looked into 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5debug, and it had. So I typed: ln -s /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5debug/build /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5/build
I use CentOS under VirtualBox. There are Guest Additions, but for Ubuntu are
virtualbox-ose-guest-utils and virtualbox-ose-guest-x11
There are GA replacements, better than GA (no problem with AppArmor). Are CentOS replacements ?
