Hi All, Hopefully someone with broad overview of CentOS compatibility issues can comment on this: I am evaluating a Supermicro X10SLM motherboard with an Intel E3-1231 v3 CPU. Testing with boots from Live DVDs, the CentOS 6.x family is panicking at boot time. I have tried 6.8, 6.5, and 6.3,

[CentOS] Bind97

I notice that CentOS 5.6 release notes say that bind97 is now included. However, my CentOS 5.6 installations have bind 9.3. I'm guessing that bind97 is not installed by default, due to the possibility of config file breakage or something. It looks like you have to explicitly install the bind97*
