Re: Yum Update Fails With libraw.so.5()(64bit)

Without knowing what exactly you did, it seems that libraw is in both centos repo and remi repo.
Did you tried to install yum priorities and give centos repo a priority of 1 and remi 2 ?

(Search for "centos 7 yum priorities" for instructions)

Re: SW Raid 1 issues with grub

Fixed. I think... So I post if anyone comes here by search or forum... I booted from Centos 6.5 LiveDVD and got a console. Doing a grub-install /dev/sda didn't helped (with "real" sda out, sdb shows as sda) I got an error " The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly. " So I did: # grub grub> root...

SW Raid 1 issues with grub

I installed Centos 6.5 on two identical drives (sda/sdb) exactly same partition tables. I tried to "test" the raid pulling out the disks. Unplugged sdb all good. It started normally with degraded array. I plug it back and sync it to test the other disk. On reboot I got a "Hard Disk Error" and nothin...

SSD Trim support on 6.4 with software raid

Based on http://blog.hqcodeshop.fi/archives/37-CentOS-6.4-SSD-RAID-1-w-TRIM-support.html
I was wondering if this feature is backported. Or if not is there a way / patch / hack to enable it ?

Disks are Intel 520, they support TRIM, but on software raid ? Is there a way?

Re: Setup see no disks but I can see them from fdisk

Solved. LSI or IMSM created one huge fakeraid partition on both disks.

The funny part is I couldn't see it in fdisk as a partition. But dd did the trick and I get rid of them. :-D

I am trying to install Centos 6 64 bit on an Intel server, motherboard s3200sh having the disks as AHCI mode in BIOS not LSI or Intel Matrix Storage. Booting from the netinstall from a USB Flash I was seeing only the usb on the disk list and nothing else. First I thought that something was wrong wit...

Re: Upgrade to Centos 6 from Centos 5

Don't confuse an Operating system in which you plug a USB device (Win95/98) and the output is a blue screen :P with an operating system based on packages. It's doable, like debian, slackware, fedora, ubuntu, and so on... of course you will end up with many old RPMs but unusable just taking up space ...

Re: Upgrade to Centos 6 from Centos 5

There is a guide here http://planet.admon.org/update-centos-4-to-centos-5-remotely/ how to upgrade
from Centos 4 to 5.

Maybe there is a similar off-the-record/unofficial/risky way for 5 to 6 ?
