I believe only CentOS-6.x and newer are currently supported. I am in a similar predicament where I'd like to port some development CentOS5.x systems and am unable to.
With CentOS 5.11 it's possible to get some early kernel output by setting the "earlyprintk=serial" kernel command-line option. But, this disappears when the switchover to the main console happens.
I'd be keen to learn what issues exist preventing this and see if I can help in any way to get older CentOS systems supported.
I suspect that Centos 5 does boot, but without console output there's not much that can be done :( It might need some Linux kernel builds and insertion of debug to work out why the console settings from grub aren't being used.
later, Peter. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
