Hi Oscars,
I am trying to install oscar 5.1b2 on Scientific linux 5.1 (a RHEL 5
respin).Current system is a PIII900MHz/768Mb.
I have got the common repo, and the rhel5 tarballs down, and got them in.
I have also copied all the SL5.1 binary rpms
to /tftpboot/distros/scientific_linux-5-i386. At 5Gb or so its a lot.
My real interest is in diskless clusters, as I am trying to make a 24 or 32
node cluster on zero budget, with donated machiness, on restricted power
supplies. I have the thin-oscr tarball, but obviously need an oscar
installation to mangle first.
By the way...
I found a bug in one of the config files to do with urlgrabber (I think its a
bug)
Here is the script output.........................**************

So from /opt/oscar I looked with a:
find . -type f -exec grep -H urlgrabber {} \;
to find which file had a naked 'urlgrabber' line, but not
a 'python-urlgrabber' stanza. I had figured out that while scientific linux
has a package called urlgrabber, Oscar uses python-urlgrabber.
I found the scientific linux stanza in /opt/oscar/packages/yume/prereq.cfg
[scientific*:*:*]
perl-IO-Tty
python-urlgrabber << this WAS just 'urlgrabber'
python-elementtree
yum
createrepo
yume
and changed urlgrabber to python-urlgrabber. This enabled me to go further...
I now get the error message:
