For me, when I used the netinstall, after various and sundry things, it opens to an Anaconda (the GUI installer) window and begins to install (after waiting for various input from me.) If there is less than a certain amount of memory, it will then go through the crippled text install which doesn't allow you to do any customization unless you've set up a kickstart file.

Re: [CentOS] Installing CentOS-7 but keeping CentOS-6.5
On 07/13/2014 01:01 PM, Timothy Murphy wrote: I'm having trouble installing CentOS-7 on my HP MicroServer. I've tried with KDE LiveCD and Netinstall (both on USB sticks), and now I'm going to try with the DVD ISO. But I want to be quite sure I can return to CentOS-6.5 if things go wrong, so I'm wondering what precisely I need to copy (eg the MBR and a bit more) so that I could get back to things as they were. Is this documented anywhere? Actually, both failed installations did give a boot menu including the old 6.5 system, but I'm afraid sometime this might not work, and I will be cut off from the world. Incidentally, the Repair option on the netinstall system was not as useful as I expected, or perhaps I don't know how to use it properly. It entered the new CentOS-7 system OK on chroot-ing, even mounting other partitions listed in /etc/fstab . And I was able to bring up the interfaces with service network restart. But although I ran grub2-install , this did not help matters. Is there anything else one can do after chrooting into a system? Eg, can one boot the system in any way? Any advice or suggestions gratefully received. You asked what to keep to be able to boot C6. From your narrative, it seems that the legacy grub boot for C6 is already gone (blown away) by your C7 install. I haven't figured out enough about grub2 to be able to tell you how to preserve your current grub2 configuration, but here are some possible ways to keep C6 accessible: 1. The Super Grub2 Disk from http://www.supergrubdisk.org seems to be pretty good at finding any and all possibilities for booting using new and old versions of grub. 2. If you are reinstalling into exactly the same location as your previous C7 attempts (same devices for boot and root), just don't let the installer update the boot information. Since you know it boots both versions now, it should still boot both versions after the install. Not knowing what your installation problem is, I can't tell (and you may not be able to tell either) if anything is wrong with your boot information, or if that is OK. 3. From C3, install legacy grub onto a USB stick, which would allow you to boot directly to C6, without any requirement for anything to be on a hard drive. 4. It is also possible to set up a CD that will boot your computer, but I don't remember the details of that. Hope one of these, or something someone else chimes in, will help you. Also hope you get the C7 install figured out. So far I have only done it from DVD, and those went well for me.

Replying to Les' comment: the original inittab respawn method is completely brain-dead, blindly respawning without any thought for what conditions might need to be checked, etc. Just pointing out one of several approaches to respawning a daemon without the overhead of systemd. Replying to David: So you'd prefer the overhead of cron plus shells plus a bit of arcane syntax? When I first replied to this crontab line, I honestly thought you were being tongue-in-cheek. I have a similar sort of kluge in place, on a CentOS 6 system at a client, that uses the autossh package to hold open ssh reverse tunnels; reverse tunnels are great when the client's machine is behind a known-to-change-frequently dynamic address. I went with this approach since the problem is not with radvd or its init script but with my IPv6 tunnel provider. Sounds like something that systemd's concept of process dependencies could solve for you with an easier (and non-executable) syntax. Systemd provides an 'OnFailure' directive that allows you to do whatever you'd like upon failure of an particular 'unit.' That sort of mechanism might allow you to implement the process equivalent of Cisco IOS' IP SLA's. (You could mount /etc (and /var) noexec and have /usr and friends mounted read-only, even.) I wanted something that didn't require modifying any of the installed bits. This is why sysadmin configs for systemd are in /etc and the OS-supplied configs are in /usr. Your /etc 'units' to systemd will override the OS installed ones, and are all collected together in one well-defined and standard place. This approach also means that updates to radvd and friends don't overwrite my modifications. This is why sysadmin configs for systemd are in /etc and the OS-supplied configs are in /usr. Your /etc 'units' for systemd will not be touched by the updates to the OS-supplied ones. Just playing with the IPv6 stuff so having it down for up to five minutes also isn't a problem. The source of the problem goes away when my ISP provides IPv6 and I don't need to tunnel IPv6 in IPv4 anymore. If you can figure out IPv6 then systemd should be no sweat. I look at systemd as being yet another nuclear fly swatter. Overkill for simple problems that can and should be be addressed at the problem without a sweeping, system level change. I have done all of the various init styles at various times, so I make this statement having 27 years of experience dealing with Unix-like systems (I won't bore anyone with the list): in my quick perusal of systemd and its documentation, I'm cautiously optimistic that maybe finally we have something that a sysadmin can really make sing. Time will tell, of course, whether systemd actually addresses the core problems or not; we've already had one round of an init replacement, Upstart, that didn't succeed in fully addressing the core problems (but will be with us until 2020 as part of EL6). And I always reserve the right to be wrong. But traditional SystemV init last appears in EL5, which, while it is still supported until 2017, is two major versions old at this point. And in case you missed the announcement from Red Hat, EL5.11 is the last minor version update of EL5, with subsequent updates being released as they come and not batched into point releases. (I now know my last targeted version for IA64 rebuilding, which is good.as long as I can put in some automation to grab updates from then on).

I know how to do it using /etc/sysconfig/network{,-scripts}, but that is besides the point. If systemd is the Way of the Future, I should be able to do this simple configuration in it in CentOS 7. After all, with CentOS 7, systemd is the de facto way to do things, right? I do sound annoyed because I am: I keep hearing about how systemd is going to liberate us from the Old White Man way of doing things, and I am willing to be the devil's advocate here for I plan on using Linux in the foreseeable future. But, if it cannot deliver me two little interfaces up and running -- not asking for cookies and a massage but would not turn them down if I get my interfaces up and happy -- I do have an issue. So, for those who know the Way of The systemd, please show me here or in my thread (so we keep this one on-topic) how to do that in a completely systemd-networkd way (and why what I wrote is boink).

Alexander Bokovoy (from Red Hat) on the freeipa-users list (feb. 17): RHEL 6.x lacks many of the dependencies required for IPA 3.3. Newer MIT Kerberos (with API and ABI change for KDC database driver and many other changes required for trusts and two-factor authentication), newer Dogtag which relies on several dozens of Java packages and newer tomcat, systemd (we use socket activation and tmpfiles.d a lot), newer SSSD. Kerberos ccache stored in the kernel space (KEYRING ccache type) requires changes at kernel level which are also needed for kerberized NFSv4 for trusts as AD users have large Kerebros tickets when they are members of many groups and so on. Thanks for the info. We'll stick with 6.5 / 3.0 for now and hope the upgrade path is not strenuous. From first glances, it seems the manual part is going from 3.1 to something above, with the DogTag change.

I could tell you about all the positive and negative experiences I've had. I think this could be very useful, especially coming from someone who was initially reluctant (as I and clearly others are). There's been a lot of misinformation posted on this list (such as the Windows Registry reference)[1]. I wouldn't want to make any decisions about systemd based on what I've seen on this list. That's what I was concerned about. :) I certainly would try it for myself first, but if I were to read a lot of people writing I tried to actually use systemd, and it was awful/fine/awesome that would carry some weight. However, I think you should try it out yourself. I suggest giving it a try in a VM, or try one of the CentOS7 LiveCDs. I was quite hesitant about systemd when I started using it, but it was experience that led me to be able to make good judgements about it. 1. See the systemd myths web page http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/the-biggest-myths.html In the interest of full disclosure, that page is written by one of the primary authors of systemd, so we shouldn't expect an unbiased opinion.

Re: [CentOS] centos updates and kernel patches
Hi, I am using centos 6.5 minimal version, some of the updates may not be relevant for my OS. So I need to verify and decide the patches and accordingly need to update my OS.

I believe yum update updates only currently-installed packages, so they should all be relevant. So I need to verify and decide the patches and accordingly need to update my OS. Please is there any way for this? yum update also prompts you to confirm the install before proceeding. But as I wrote earlier, yum update kernel* will attempt to update just the kernel packages (and prompt for confirmation before installing). --keith -- kkel...@wombat.san-francisco.ca.us ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
