Installing FC16 DVD ISO image via USB key can't see USB device

2012-06-25 Thread Peter Butler
I have created a USB installer for the FC16 DVD ISO image via the livecd-iso-to-disk tool, as detailed on the Fedora wiki. I also included the appropriate "repo=hd::/path/file" boot parameter to the kernel command-line, as the wiki states that for all releases prior to FC17 this must be added. My

James - thanks for the info. Much appreciated. In answer to your question, the reason for the upgrade on the 'stand-alone' machine is mostly so as to have the latest kernel (3.3.7 as opposed to 3.10) as there are a lot of SCTP fixes with regards to this (still) changing piece of code. -- u

Jens, RIchard Thanks for the info - much appreciated. Is there any way to download all the required updates (on a machine that has Internet access, obviously) and save these downloads for the creation of the local repository you speak of? Let me clarify. The target system (with no Internet a

How to apply updates to a system with no Internet access?

How would one go about applying FC16 updates to a system with no Internet access? The system will be freshly installed via DVD, and then requires all the associated updates. Is there any way to download the updates on another machine (that has Internet access), copy them over to the target sys

FC17 netstat does not report SCTP associations properly

2012-05-30 Thread Peter Butler
This issue appears to have been introduced with FC17 as it was working properly with FC16. Basically, when listing SCTP associations via netstat (i.e. "netstat --sctp"), an error is displayed (see below). Servers appear to be listed without issue - although that could just be due to the specif

Re: FC17 does not include SCTP kernel module

2012-05-30 Thread Peter Butler
A couple of issues with that - hopefully not a big deal: (1) The system I am installing to does not have direct Internet access and thus cannot do a 'yum' to an external repository. I can only install what's on the FC17 DVD ISO or via RPM (that I download from a separate machine). (2) My arch is

FC17 does not include SCTP kernel module

2012-05-30 Thread Peter Butler
FC17 does not include the SCTP kernel module, as it had before (i.e. in FC16 etc.) I can't find the FC17 kernel-modules-extra RPM for it, nor even the FC17 kernel source RPM to compile it myself! Help! Peter Butler Software Engineer Performance Technologies 40 Hines Road, Suite 500 O
