Red Hat :: Find Up To Date Documentation For Kickstart Configuration Under RHEL6?
Jan 4, 2011
I'm migrating a custom RHEL5.5 install DVD to RHEL6 and am having some trouble with the Kickstart script. All things work great with 5.5 but if just copying it over to use with version 6 some things don't work. For example creating a user, doesn't create his home directory, neither automatically nor when using --homedir option. Another example when creating logical volumes I used to use the --percent option with RHEL5.5 which worked perfectly but for some reason crashes under 6. When I set the size to fixed then it works. Does anyone have any idea where I can find up to date documentation for kickstart configuration under RHEL6?
I need to do a project on installing RHEL6 via kick start file in a single DVD. I have made the kick start file and it's ready with the basic parameters like keyboard type, language, firewall and SElinux disabled. How can i boot it in the server. Also please help me in the below steps,
I need to use LVM option for File systems except swap and /boot, how can i mention it in the file?If there is a need to use NIS or LDAP where can i mention it in the file?
I just unpacked the latest version of Thunderbird. Now there is a new Thunderbird folder in my folder named Downloads. I can run Thunderbird by using the provided script. Should this folder be moved? I was unable to find anything in any of the documentation as to where this folder should be located.
I've been attempting to install GEANT4 (a physics simulation program thing) however, I keep running into an issue. I've attempted to find answers within GEANT Documentation, but this seems to be experienced often by users, but not addressed within their documentation. Anyways, when I try to build it says I have installation errors, and the only one I can find within the output is this:
Code: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLU collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [/home/zach/geant4/geant4_9_4_b01/lib/Linux-g++/libG4FR.so] Error 1 Creating shared library /home/zach/geant4/geant4_9_4_b01/lib/Linux-g++/libG4visHepRep.so ... /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLU collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I am using LibreOffice under Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows XP, and trying to record some macros. I can find no documentation with for recording macros. There are some forum threads of individuals, but the replies all recommend external programs. LibreOffice has its own macro recorder, doesn't it? It is on the Tools menu, as in previous versions of OpenOffice, but "record macro" is blanked out. Is this because LibreOffice 3 can't do macros? I have no idea why an external program should be needed.
I found that Kate comes with a plugin called "Kate Snippets", and it seems very nice.It lets you add commands into the snippet and even define QtScript (similar to JavaScript) functions to do things.But there is no manual or documentation that I can find.aybe someone knows more about this?
I cannot seem to find any good documentation on the role of flags -Bdynamic and -Bstatic in g++. The man pages are not very helpful either.I found an example on the web:"gcc object1.o object2.o -Wl,-Bstatic -lapplejuice -Wl,-Bdynamic -lorangejuice -o binary".According to which -Bstatic instructs the linker to statically link the applejuice library and to dynamically link the orangejuice library. If orangejuice uses the applejuice library anywhere however,the applejuice is also linked dynamically. Is it correct to assume that this is correct and describes the true functionality of those two flags in gcc? (ie: Bstatic and Bdynamic are used for mixing static and shared libraries during linking)Is it correct to assume that the same applies to g++ as well?
I'm trying to follow the exim documentation to allow suffixes on mailboxes for all users. For example, if user@domain is a mailbox, I want all mail directed to user-*@domain to be delivered user@domain. I've got the split-config-files option and have edited /etc/exim4/conf.d/router/600 to include local_part_suffix lines as follows:
I have using 10 system . one system RHEl5.5 server.all others are xp. I want to install linux to all systems. so I don't have configure kickstart file for dual booting . how to configure kickstart file for dual booting . but I wont lose existing xp os
I am successfully able to kickstart FC12 onto my system, however once anaconda runs it changes the resolution of the console when running a text mode install. Are there any kickstart options that can control this behavior?
I tried to set resolution and nofb in the kickstart configuration. I am using the text option for text install. My problem is that my remote KVM doesn't support the console resolution.
When I clall the "update manager" it tells me if my system is up-to-date or new updates are available. Lets assume I update my system now (I disabled automatic updates).
Then (in a couple of days or weeks) I start the Update Manager again and it tells me again that new updates available. How can I find out now when the last time was when my system was "up-to-date" (=when a complete, successful update took place)?
Is there soemwhere an entry which shows this date?
This looks good, the files expected to be seen are output: find /usr ( -newer /tmp/empty_file -a ! -newer /tmp/empty_file1 ) -print
But this shows me files that should not be output and likewise when I replace ls with tar it is tarring a whole bunch of stuff I do not want: find /usr ( -newer /tmp/empty_file -a ! -newer /tmp/empty_file1 ) -exec ls -l {} ;
In the end I would like to replace the "ls" with "tar cvvfp some.tar {} ;", but can't figure out what is going wrong here.
so I was wondering how I could do a simple find which would order the results by most recently modified. Here is the current fine I am using. (I am doing a shell escape in php, so that is the reasoning for the variables. find '$dir' -name '$str'* -print | head -10
How could I have this order the search by most recently modified. (Note I do not want it to sort 'after' the search, but rather find the results based on what was most recently modified)
I have a ton of files that are timestamped directories. These all look like2011-06-24_13.53.36 // a directory name for june 24th, 1:53:36 pmI have thousands of these directories. I want to do operations on some of the older ones. Let's say I give it a string for date time that matches that exact format, like i'll give it2011-06-25_00.00.00 // june 25th, 12amI want to find all the directories BEFORE my time. So if i give the string for 12am on june 25th, i want to find all the directories before then.If not i can find EVERY directory i have like this and then filter after wards. The created/modified dates are not tied to the actual timestamp im looking for (that would make this easier)
I know find can do what I am looking for, but I am wondering if there is an alternative way to find files on the filesystem either created before/after a certain point, or at a certain time.
Typically I rely on updatedb & locate for most of my file searching needs. Issues with those tools, though, are that it only has directory and file names, and it only creates a database of local directories, not anything mounted via CIFS|NFS or via -o loop (eg, .iso images).
So if I need to find files created after yesterday across the entire system (local and remote filesystems), I am currently needing to use find.
What other tools, if any, would accomplish this in a similar fashion?
I have tried ls and grep, but that requires (in my attempts so far) multiple searches:
ls -lR | grep Aug | grep 10 ls -lR | grep Aug | grep 11
I am new to Scripting. I am trying to find out particular file is modified in last one hour or not in script and then if that file is modified in last one hour i need to copy that file to another directory.Can any one please provide me how to check the file is modified in one hour or not?
I need to know all files modified within a date and time range.E.g: All modified files between 20 April 2010, 1100-1200 Hrs."find / -mtime +10 ! -mtime +11" :: this i found for date but how to include time as well.
So I just installed Debian Lenny on my PC (the install went fine). After installing, I went into aptitude and noticed that most of the packages available in the repository are out of date (python 2.5, GCC 4.3). System Update tells me that I am up to date, and when I tell synaptic/aptitude to mark all updatable packages, it does nothing. I have tried typing apt-get update as root aswell. Nothing worked.
I installed Debian with the first DVD from [URL]. During the installation, I told it to download anything that wasn't on the DVD. Shortly after installing, I had manually edited my /etc/apt/sources.list and commented out the CD line. Could any of this have messed up APT?
i'm trying to make a script that gives one output if a directory in /home is older than one month, and another if the directory is less than one month old. I looked around and saw that the creation date for directories isn't stored, or at least i couldn't find it? How is this possible to do then?
What offline method is there of finding out days since a certain date. Example: How would someone find the number of days from 1-Jan-2003 to 7-Dec-2010? Could someone write a script that takes in the 2 dates and output the number of days?
[URL]... contains a great table comparing the implementation of IPv6 features in several Linux distributions. the problem is that it is over 4 years old. where I could find a more up-to-date resource?
I'm trying to find a proper command to move a certain set of files according to date/time range. I am thinking that the command should be something like:
I need to find the list of file being tagged by user jack starting from a given date.Eg:Tag Name:lcc_dev_p1User: jackDate: >= 2011-03-02can some done tell me what is the cvs command for this.Should the below command give the correct outputcvs log -R -S -N -rlcc_dev_p1 -d">=2011-03-13" -wjack > /tmp/output.txt
