CentOS might support the 7 i686 alt-arch, but Fedora EPEL does not. So there aren’t any packages in EPEL7 for i686. -- Jonathan Billings ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] ntfs support
I should think this is quite a basic question but what I have tried so far hasn't worked. I have centos altarch 7 and I want to mount an ntfs volume. (I am beginning to suspect it is not available for 32 bit so I will need to get the source and compile?) These commands I have tried: yum --enablerepo=extras install epel-release yum --enablerepo=extras yum install epel-release I have enabled extras, but I don't know what epel-release is or how to enable it. yum repolist enabled Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirrors.coreix.net * extras: mirrors.coreix.net * updates: mirrors.coreix.net repo id repo name status base/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Base 7,625 extras/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Extras 257 updates/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Updates 791 repolist: 8,673 yum search ntfs Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirrors.coreix.net * extras: mirrors.coreix.net * updates: mirrors.coreix.net Warning: No matches found for: ntfs No matches found ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
