Hardware :: Dell 1435 AMD Opteron, Won't Install 64 Bit RHEL 5?
Mar 14, 2011
I have a Dell 1435 with an AMD Opteron 64 bit chip, however when I install RHEL 5.5 I only get a 32 bit OS. The disk I'm using to install RH is the 64 bit copy, it says "For 64-bit AMD64 and INTEL 64" on the front of the disk. After the install I do a "uname -m" and it displays "i686" which indicates a 32 bit OS.1. Why does this happen?2. Is there a CL option that will allow me to force an install of the 64 bit os?I'm confused.I've installed literally over 100 systems and this never happened.

I have a rack of Dell 1750s running RHEL 5.3 and we just upgraded the memory from 4GB to 8GB. When the machine boots, the BIOS probes out 8GB, but the boot scroll (dmesg) only shows 4GB, as seen after we login. How can I get it to see all of the mem?

I have a Dell Precison 690 system in my lab. I want to downgrade the system from RHEL 5 to RHEL $ since some of my software is not working in RHEL 5. I have the installation CD and the dell driver CD. There are 2 cd drives in the system and I am using both the CDS at the same time. But when the installation asks to select hda or hdb to get the driver cd. I put the CD in the second cd dirve which is connected to hdb. When I select hdb it is not recognizing the cd. When I skip the driver selection step I am getting the error:"No valid device were found on which to create new file"I have used the following and nothing worked:
linux noprobe
linux apci blah blah off
linux all generic blah blah blah

I think the gx620 is called "64-bit capable" or something like that. I get the idea it's not a true 64-bit machine. I am thinking about getting CentOS 6.x (when it comes out) to learn rhel 6.x. Some features, like KVM, only work on 64-bit. I am seeing gx620s on craigslist for about $100.

Just looking for some general guidance with regard to installing over the native Windows 7 (x64) installation on my new Alienware M11x with RHEL 5. I have considered other Linux OS's such as Ubuntu Desktop, Fedora, and Open SuSe. However, I am of the opinion that RHEL will - from the jump - most fluidly integrate with the Intel Core i7 architecture, 1GB NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M, and other components. I plan to convert my existing Windows XP installation into a VMWare image and run that as a guest on my Alienware M11x (instead of alternatively running RHEL 5 as a guest). However, I am concerned whether it will be possible for the guest (Windows) OS (or any guest OS for that matter) to recognize/use the Alienware sound/video/LAN/Bluetooth EDR/WWAN/etc. (as the drivers were designed for Windows 7).

I received an amber light warning "IB110 - SBE Log Disabled." I've learned from Red Hat documentation that this is "for information only". Where can I find a better explanation of this warning? Also, what is the SBE Log, how can I enable it, and where can I view it? It doesn't seem to be in /var

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.

Currently our cluster is based on AMD opteron processors. We are going to add more nodes however I want to know is it good to add Intel xeon processors. They both claim to be x86 compatible however I don't know if they are really math each other.Does a program compiled on Intel xeon really works on opteron (amd64)?

This card has been the bane of my existence for a while. In the old days I could get it to work with Fedora using a generic video driver. A friend recommended OpenSuse because of my love for KDE.
The good news is that install went greeeeat. But after that, I once again got a black screen with a line randomly done it. Is there a way to change? I tried changing those resolution options but it didn't work. I have the Windoze driver from Dell's site. Its Dell Inspiron 5160.

When I run the openSUSE-11.3-GNOME-LiveCD-x86_64.iso from an usb stick and select "Installation" or "openSUSE Live (GNOME)" the screen goes to black after showing the load bar for a while.
This is most likely a graphics driver issue but I have no idea how to fix it.
This happens on a dell precision M4500. The same usb stick works fine on another machine.

A client has sent me an RHEL 5.1 box for me to do some work on, but it's not registered with Red Hat. This is causing me problems, because it's a minimal installation, and I need some more dev software.My immediate reaction was to install various bits (emacs, and so on) from my Centos 5(.0) DVD.The base RHEL system only had one (disabled) repo entry,so I added a yum DVD repo entry in yum.conf.d.
This looked good to start with, but it doesn't work. Something in RHEL's pirut/yum/rpm/whatever is getting confused, and can't work out what is/isn't installed.
Question - how do you maintain an unregistered RHEL box? Has RH done something to make life difficult? Is my problem simply that I'm using a Centos 5.0 DVD, instead of Centos 5.1? Am I stuck with downloading lots of rpms from the net and doing everything manually? I really don't want to do that.

I can't install OpenSuse 11.2 on my Dell latitude XT notebook.
1. I tried DVD x86-64 install. The process seemed ok, but after installing Suse can't boot - with its any menu item. Booting seemed ok, there was no errors in screen lines, but when GUI seemed try to load (the screen became colored), all freezed. VGA menu item and other boot menu options did not save the situation. Repeat booting from DVD with Recovery option showed not mount or not correctly unmount fs (which couldn't be corrected by recovery program), some not fatal difficulties in the core and other minor and correctable errors. But after recovery process the picture was the same.
2. Then I tried net install. The same picture.
3. Installing to clean hd... The same. (Manual partitioning - the same too.)
I will not describe my numerous different attempts (and wast time spent for net downloading), so far as I thought that the matter was in my adjustments in the installing process, because other Linux distributive (such as Mandriva, Ubuntu etc. tried by me) were installed without the slightest problem at the Latitude XT.
4. Then I downloaded and installed 11.1 version of Suse. There was only some minor errors, and booting was normal. But there appeared some problems with downloading from repositories and I couldn't update it to 11.2; and installing 11.2 over 11.1 from DVD resulted to the same problems.
5. After I searched this forum, I've tried different installing options (noacpi and so on) at last.. But without any result and any change.

I have two systems connected by local network 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2 both installed RHEL
I have congigured nfs and httpd and /mnt/package contains the rhel dvd contents extracted. Also the iso image of rhel from the other system (192.168.0.2), I can mount the share from 192.168.0.1. i.e NFS network is ok in 192.168.0.1
But when I tries to install rhel from 192.168.0.2 It shows the message that that directory cannot be mounted. selinux is permissive in 192.168.0.1. The problem when it asks for network ipno.Is it required to run dhcp server on 192.168.0.1? I have tried another way also - by http created a link to /mnt/package in /var/www/html
But when I tries to install through http://192.168.0.1/package ( from http://192.168.0.1 also - experimented all combinations) - it automatically switches to CD install.

But however I am finding it impossible to go ahead and I am geting an ***error 404: not found*** way of installation. Also since I am not well acquainted with linux, can I request for a detailed explanation of each & every steps involved.
