You said you tried an older version of OSCAR -- I have been using 5.1b2 with all CentOS 5.x (5.0 - 5.4, just installing a 5.4 system last week with it) with no trouble. I remember having some trouble with the 5.1 rc's, but the beta solved it, and then that was as far as the 5.1 series got when development started on the 6.0 line. If you are considering reverting, I suggest 5.1b2 to see if you have better luck. If you want to get the 6.0 line working, someone else will have to lend a hand there. --Joe

Due to the repo issues i have now turned towards FC9. I have tried the steps outlined and after creating the yum repo i execute yum update and then yum install oscar. Below is the transcript: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [r...@head ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit oscar | 951 B 00:00 oscar/primary | 54 kB 00:00 oscar 168/168 Setting up Update Process No Packages marked for Update [r...@head ~]# yum install oscar Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments No package oscar available.

Nothing has come up through google searches on how this my repo file is as follows: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Fedora-OSCAR.repo # # If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the # remarked out baseurl= line instead. # # [oscar] name=fedora-$releasever - OSCAR baseurl=http://bison.csm.ornl.gov/repos/fc-9-x86_64 gpgcheck=0 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Can be resolved. Does anyone have any ideas? A while ago for the heck of it I had tried installing oscar5.1rc1 on FC9 and that was also a disaster as after i managed to get the installer GUI it wouldnt let me modify packages or create a client image.
