Subject: [RHCE] Notes from the first meeting/new schedule and syllabus
Message-ID: <20020602230543.87561.qmail@web11108.mail.yahoo.com>

Greetings RHCE group members,

At Thursday's initial meeting we introduced ourselves
and heard from Frank Welty, RHCE. Special thanks to
Frank for taking time out of his schedule to give us
some great advice as we get started.

We decided a couple things at the first meeting:
- Due to some conflicts, we're switching to Tuesday
instead of Thursday nights. The new syallbus is at the
bottom of this mail.
- Each person signed up to lead the discussion/lab on
a particular day and those are listed on the new
syllabus at the end of this mail.
- The group decided that anyone else who wants to
attend any meetings must first sign up to help lead
one of the discussions. The group isn't intended for
casual  or sporatic attendees. If you didn't attend
the first session but think you want to start
attending, you'll need to volunteer to help lead a
discussion day (just mail the whole list).

Our next meeting is Tuesday, June 11. See you then.

Jim

Hi fellow rhce students.

I intend to have an html presentation ready for the class. Hope you can 
help me getting things right. Do not hesitate to interrupt me. Also, if 
you know or are vary confortable with any of the areas of Tuesday's 
class, please let me know. I don't know everything, although I want to 
know everything *grin*

Anyway,

I have found and interesting website that could help us:
http://www.rhce2b.com/clublinux/RHCE.shtml

How many of you have RedHat 7.3? How many of you have a boxed RedHat? It 
will be interesting to have one running at home, with everything 
installed.

Also, I expect you guys to have RedHat 7.3 CDs (iso downloads, box...) . 
The boxed version contains the Documentation CD, a big bonus. 

The Doc CD contains (in HTML & PDF) (copy-pasted form the CD):

    *   The Official Red Hat Linux x86 Installation Guide: The latest 
installation guide for Red Hat Linux

    * The Official Red Hat Linux Getting Started Guide: Useful 
information to help a newbie feel at home

    * The Official Red Hat Linux Customization Guide: Focuses on 
advanced installation procedures, kernel configuration, and the new 
configuration tools

    * The Official Red Hat Linux Reference Guide: In-depth information 
about Linux in general and your Red Hat Linux system in particular

    * You can also find the Official Red Hat Linux manuals, in PDF 
format

    * The Red Hat Network User Reference Guide: Learn more about getting 
the latest software updates for your Red Hat Linux system.

    * You can also find a copy of the community-maintained book Maximum 
RPM. This book, originally published by Red Hat in 1997, is an in-depth 
view of the RPM Package Manager.

    * You can find a sample kickstart installation file here


Hope this helps.

Hi there,

Duke power has "rebooted" my machine while I was at work. And I cannot access 
my home e-mails.

Can someone give me directions to the meeitng place / the address so I can 
mapquest it?

Also, when is the meeting? 6:00? 7:00?

Will we have a machine to "demo" a RedHat install?

The meeting is tonight (Tuesday, June 11) at 7:00pm.
I've posted directions and the syllabus multiple times
to the list now, so rather than do a 3rd time I'm just
going to refer to the archives (hyperlinked at the
bottom of each RHCE email). 

I have a laptop which will have a base/vanilla install
of RH7.3 on it we can hook to the projector for some
basic demo purposes, but I'd really rather not
practice-install on it since I'm dual-booting with
another OS. If you want to live-demo an install, feel
free to bring a box to do so.

Jim

Can we used to "demo" (not actualy install or change anything) the 
installation methid?

Or, can anyone bring a computer? I live in Chapel Hill and I work at Raleigh, 
so bringing mine is quite impossible (darn!)

Fellow students,

I've tar'ed yesterday's presentation and uploaded to my website.

http://www.ibiblio.org/sinner/linux/rhce.tar.gz

You can get it with the wget command:

wget http://www.ibiblio.org/sinner/linux/rhce.tar.gz

It is in HTML, contains a couple of images and it's optimized to work with 
AnyBrowser :)

It hasn't been corrected (yet) for typos. If you see any, please let me know, 
so I can fix it. I already have seen 4 typos. I will upload (at the same 
address) the updated version and announce it to the list.

Message-ID: <v02130500b92e22d52871@[10.0.1.2]>

I had a quick chance to install RH 7.3 last night and had 
pretty much the same problem I mentioned in class again.
First indication is that SCSI fails to initialize at startup.

It appears that depmod -a does not work for me. Could be
something wrong with the package, or choking on something in my
setup.

I'll have to look into this more when I have a chance, but for 
now I'd caution you all not to install RH 7.3 onto a critical box.

I run RH 7.3 on a legion of boxes - both scsi and ide.  I've not had a 
problem.  In fact this seems to a fairly robust release.  What problem are 
you seeing?

i installed 7.3 on my other poweredge 1400 server and had the exact same
scsi issue (failed to insert module during kernel boot).  after
installation a quick 'hdparm -tT /dev/sda' yields a scsi disk throughput
of about 20MB/s, far short of the 53-56MB/s i got under 7.2.  and you can
tell the difference, installs that used to take 15 minutes now take over
half an hour.  on IDE systems everything is fine.  i've had a few other
7.3 problems as well - KDE display problems with ATI video cards (which
most of my boxes have), major nfs problems (the daemon can take up to 10
minutes to start, and even then it is very slow to respond, tons of
duplicate messages in /var/log/messages), and a few other minor things as
well.  i've gone back to 7.2 for the time being, i just don't have the
time to troubleshoot these things right now.  but i'm frustrated because i
didn't have to troubleshoot anything with 7.1 and 7.2 - they both worked
flawlessly right out of the box.  i kinda feel like RH let me down a
little with this release.
if anyone else has experienced nfs issues with 7.3, please let me know,
that issue really has piqued my curiosity.

If I recall correctly, the Dell Poweredge series (especially the lower end) 
uses a proprietary SCSI adapter - built for them specially by Adaptec.  You 
will need the Dell specific drivers.

I inherited a bunch of low-end Dell Poweredge servers, and have found the 
whole lot to be proprietary pieces of crap.  Yes, they run marvelously 
after you spend 12 hours installing them, but the high maintenance - caused 
by proprietary crap hardware that functionally add zero value to the unit - 
has tainted my view of them.

Best of luck - Jon Carnes

you may be right jon.  unfortunately almost all common intel servers
suffer from the same problem (IBM, compaq, dell).  i build my own
workstations but for server class hardware, even low end, it is easier and
cheaper to get a name brand system.  that dell PE1400 with a 18GB 10K scsi
disk, 512MB ECC ram, serverworks chipset, integrated scsi, intel nic, and
decent video cost under $700 shipped and with a warranty, tough to beat
that deal.
why might the stock RH72 kernel (2.4.7) work beautifully and the RH73
stock kernel (2.4.18) suck?  would the kernel scsi modules really have
changed?

I isolated my problem to a corrupt /sbin/modprobe

Here's the general instructions (since we're all here to learn) but
I don't remember the exact package name:

 # rpm -q --whatprovides /sbin/modprobe
 # rpm -V modutils

which showed /sbin/modprobe with a corrupt md5 signature.

and fixed it by reinstalling the package
 # rpm -U --replacepkgs ${install_media_path}/modutils*.i386.rpm

But that doesn't explain how it got corrupted? Now I'm interested...

However, it'll have to wait until tonight.

I use ATI videocards in my 3 test servers at work (at redhat): 2 compaq, 
one hp. I know that there's a spefial agreement between redhat and 
dell. But i haven't tried to install on a dell for some time now.

As I recommended during the class, please enter a bug for bugzilla about 
this stuff. If RedHat is not told about the problem, how can they solve 
it?

Yes, RedHat pays a lot of attention to bugzilla.

http://bugzilla.redhat.com

Consider sending the information about your system collected with the 
comands:

lspci
cat /proc/.... (the path to the info about your scsi controller)
fdisk -l
(a sample of hdparm showing the difference in speed between 7.2 and 7.3)

Hi Everyone,

I had run across this site awhile back and was doing some bookmark
cleaning and thought I would pass it along:

http://www.rhce2b.com/

I haven't had time to check it out completely myself but it looks like
it will be helpful.

Regards,
