I had inconsciously excluded this possibility because I was *sure* all payments were OK. Due to a misunderstanding between me and the ISP, they thought I knew I should proceed myself, I thought that also domain renewals would be handled automatically by their system. After you helped me to realize this wasn't the case, I went back to the control panel to pay and everything is OK now. Thanks again!

Note that it is also possible to set up VMware and perhaps virtualbox to be able to boot the alternate OS as a virtual machine so you can run both at once if you like. If you don't have the enterprise-licensed version of windows you might need to run it as the host, though. Otherwise it will want to be re-licensed every time you switch between virtual and physical boots and it sees different hardware. With Vmware you have to install the (free) server version to do the setup, although you can later remove it and use the player version at runtime if you prefer. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] centos 5.2 install: mbr or no bootloader ?
I recently used a purchased centos 5.2 dvd to install. It all went smoothly, and I am up and running automagically it seems to have upgraded itself to 5.3 Final One peculiarity: I believe I was given the choice of: --installing the bootloader into mbr or --no bootloader install I did not want my mbr overwritten, so I chose no bootloader Why is there no choice of 1st sector of root partition? or did I just miss it? I wanted to chainload the centos install, but that requires grub installed into 1st sector of root partition. So after the os install I used knoppix livecd to > grub root (hd1,4) # sdb5 is my centos partition setup (hd1,4) and centos now loads from a chainloader +1in my grub partition So I have fixed it; but curious as to why the install dvd didn't give me the choice there.

Thanks. Just finished compiling php 5.2.9 from the sprms I found here: http://oss.oracle.com/projects/php/ works fine despite the slight Oracle smell - but they should really make a repository.

I also have src.rpm's here: http://www.clfsrpm.net/php/ I use to maintain binary repo but that's a lot of work I no longer have time for. If I'm not mistaken, the Oracle src.rpm's are based on Fedora. So are mine, except mine also has the suhosin core patch. > > Once used Jason Litka's repository but it sees a bit stale now: > http://www.jasonlitka.com/2007/11/16/upgrading-to-php-525-on-rhel-and-centos/ Mine currently has 5.2.9 but I probably won't update it, other than maybe to add security patches as vulnerabilities are found. I'm only running 5.2.9 myself because I wanted to report a bug and the php devel team wants you to try the latest version first. Since 5.2.9 didn't break anything of mine, I kept it. (oh - and my bug wasn't a bug, it was my mis-understanding of the still poorly documented DOMDocument class related to namespaces) centos also has some php 5.2.x I believe in their testing repo. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Thanks for the hint, but it won't work for us, we need the stand-alone machines for a course-lab. Each student working at one machine kind of scenario, though the idea is interesting in order to eliminate dual-booting. Always booting linux and having Windows running in Xen or something at the same time sound appealing actually. I'll see if this is feasible with the course-admins. Anyway, we have volume licenses for Windows, so no need for re-activation or anything. Update: Just spoke to the course-admin a quickie. He saw no reason to not run Windows virtual machines on a linux box. I'll look into this after the course is over. -- /Sorin smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
