  Promise RAID Controller
Posted by: upper - 2004-02-20, 08:38 PM - Forum: Fedora - Replies (2)


Promise do not yet have driver modules built for Fedora. So you have to download the Linux source code for your controller card and compile it on an existing Fedora installation. When this is complete you will be left with a module (ie. FastTrak.o)

 

If you are using the card in an existing Fedora environment simply:

/sbin/insmod Module.o

 

If this is a new installation of Fedora then copy the module onto a floppy disk. Start the installation by inserting CD1 of the Fedora discs. Press 'Enter' and do the normal graphic installation. Before the anaconda installer starts, switch to a different terminal 'cntrl-alt-F2'. This should bring you to a shell.

 

Mount the floppy disk and load the module:

 

mkdir /mnt/floppy

mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy

cd /mnt/floppy

insmod Module.o

 

It should load successfully, possibly with warnings.

 

Switch back to first terminal 'cntrl-alt-F1' and continue the installation as normal.

if you have problems running up2date, and you are advised to clear your rpm database heres how

 

as root

 

 

 



Code:
[root@localhost root]#  rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*




 

then

 

 

 



Code:
[root@localhost root]# rpm -vv --rebuilddb




 

once done, try running up2date again

  up2date slow as a donkey ?
Posted by: anyweb - 2004-02-20, 02:19 PM - Forum: Fedora - Replies (1)


if like me your fedora up2date is slowwwwwwwwwwwww then try a different mirror

 

you'll need to edit a file called

 

/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources

 

the default file is below fyi:-

 

 

 

 

 



Code:
### this describes the various package repos up2date will look into
### for packages. It currently supports apt-rpm repos, yum repos,
### and "dir" repos


### format is one repo entry per line, # starts comments, the
### first word on each line is the type of repo.
                                                                                 
### the defalt rhn (using "default" as the url means
### use the one in the up2date config file
#up2date default

### When a channel-label is required for the non up2date repo's,
### the label is soley used as an internal identifier and is not
### based on the url or any other info from the repo.

### an apt style repo, this time arjanv's 2.6 kernel repo
### format is:
### type  channel-label      service:server     path        repo name

#apt arjan-2.6-kernel-i386 http://people.redhat.com ~arjanv/2.5/ kernel

### Note that for apt repos, there can be multiple repo names specificed
### space seperated.

### an yum style repo
### format:
### type  channel-label     url

yum fedora-core-1 http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-1
yum updates-released http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1
#yum updates-testing http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/testing/fedora-core-1

### an local directory full of packages
### format
#dir my-favorite-rpms-i386-9 /var/spool/RPMS/


# multiple versions of all repos except "up2date" can be used. Depenencies
# can be resolved "cross-repo" if need be.




 

the faster mirror i'm currently using is edited into this file and you can see my ammended sources file below

I have a problem with fedora utility to add and remove software.

 

I am trying to add development package for X that I did not installed originally.

 

After selecting the package the application says that needs Xfree-lib and another rpm package to continue.

 

Those rpms are already installed with the correct version!!!

 

I have tryied to reinstall the manually. Despite the installation the application contitnue to tel me that those rpm are missing!!!

 

Any idea?
