A new set of RPMs is now available in the unstable repository (CentOS only). 
They also include other bug fixes, refer to 
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/roadmap for more details.

Objet: Re: [Oscar-users] Hints: Bootstrapping 6.0.3 on CentOS 5.3 x86_64

Hi,

I am also playing with OSCAR 6.0.3 with CentOS 5.3, do you think if
it's necessary to use unstable repository? In the release repository,
oscar-6.0.3-1 already had the timeout=9 setting. I tried the released
oscar-6.0.3-1 and the bootstrapping is not very smooth because the url
in the file centos-5-x86_64.url might not be reliable. Sometimes
isoredirect.centos.org redirect the request to a bad server and the
bootstrapping would fail. I found that trying it several times helps.

After I passed the system-sanity check, I still found that the
installation is not quite right... like this kind of thing.

Quote BEGIN
============================================================================
== oscar_wizard: Starting...
============================================================================

binpath: no such variable
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/bin/oscar_wizard line 205.
Quote END

Is that normal?

Bests,
