[CentOS-docs] Re : Wiki: Howtos/Virtualization/HyperV

2011-04-02 Thread Milos Blazevic
Hello Ozy,


having used Hyper-V for about two years, ever since it was 'published' 
in it's pre-release version immediately after release of Windows 2008 
Server, I'm very glad you found the time to write a Wiki article on the 
issue. I remember the time drifts in particular, and wasting two whole 
days troubleshooting the problem until I finally got it resolved - and 
at that time, LIC was not even at version 2.

However, I'm not here to chit-chat about my experiences with Hyper-V and 
CentOS, but to point out another issue (more of a pain in the butt) with 
this software setup, and that is - the rebuilding of the kernel modules 
every time you reinstall the kernel - something very recommended with EL 
distro such as CentOS. And, in this respect I'd like to add my 
'contribution' by pointing you to the article addressing this: 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2387594

Yes, venturing to that domain does kinda make one a pilgrim in an unholy 
land,... But regardless, Hyper-V environment is no longer available to 
me - and hasn't been for the past 6 months or so, hence, I'm unable to 
test this for myself... but it's still one of the battles I don't 
consider won (by getting to the bottom of it) - and I think at least I 
got even.


Having said that, I would really appreciate if you could review the 
article, got back to me with your findings, and if the content from this 
source could find it's way into this fine Wiki article of yours :)


Kind regards,

 Hello again,
 
 I want to contribute to the Wiki, in the WebsiteVer2 section,

What exactly there? You have seen the Thread(s) on the centos-devel
mailing list? There will be an IRC meeting, probably next week - thread
also is on the devel list.

Does the license of that article allow that (I guess it could be
rewritten)? :)

I don't have a problem with the content (as dkms is available from
trusted repositories), so I'd have no problem with the inclusion either.
But yeah, maybe the main author of the article wants to chime in.

Re: [CentOS-docs] FOG on CentOS Wiki contribution suggestion?

 I have created the bulk of the document over at 
 http://wiki.centos.org/AlexGoffe, This is a basic hand holding guide 
 for a user to install fog 0.30 on centos 5.5, ideally aimed at users 
 with basic Linux experience. Anyone with FOG experience please chip in 
 with some further detail.

One thing I've seen (just skimmed over it once): There's no need to
explain on how to install rpmforge, it would be better to link ot the
instructions which already are on the wiki, as those also explain the
gotchas.

Regards,

Ralph

Damn, you're 100% right, Ralph... This definitely is something that 
should be taken into consideration. I really wouldn't like for this 
suggestion to cause any
trouble to either CentOS Wiki or to Ozy... However, I sadly have to 
admitt my knowledge is rather poor on this matter.

Hence, I'm hoping for someone with more experience in this legal stuff 
to chime in.
(But then again, I really don't see the reason why would the Redmond 
heretics mind - maybe not if the original article is pointed out as a 
reference and source for some part of the CentOS Wiki article?)

Re: [CentOS-docs] Contributing to Wiki

2011-04-02 Thread Jim Woods
Hi Ralph,

I emailed you sometime last week off-list. I re-read the website
version 2, next steps thread, tried to write an email in response,
realized it was terribly too long, and figured I would edit the wiki
pages or put up a couple of new ones.

That's when I realized I had to ask for approval to contribute to the wiki.

I did see a an initial note about an irc meeting, but no follow-ups.
Looking now, I guess I better post my availability. I am GMT -7, so
this may be a bit hard to schedule.

Thanks,

Jim
