1and1 AOOI problem

[Highland]

The installer is currently trying to pull a file that apparently no longer exists

Getting CentOS ISO: --10:21:02-- http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/ ... x86_64.iso

Done.
Error: Cannot find the CentOS server image

The only file remaining int that directory is CentOS-4.4-x86_64-binDVD.iso

Any chance it could be move to http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/ ... binDVD.iso ?

The AOOI is really easy to modify. Just open up the script and update the place it is pulling the CD from. I'd recommend reimaging the box with one of the 1and1 images before you try again to remove all artifacts and gotchas that may be present.

Yeah looks like they dropped it. I need another URL to use.

I reimaged but i don't know how to open script and update. can u help? thanks I'm tring to learn

For the beginner, you could always just download the script and open it up in a text editor (like notepad in Windows) and change what needs changing. The script is just a text file. Upload it to the server and done.

Couple of things

You can replace the download location with http://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/centos which has the 4.4 server CD file. Apparently 4.5 is only available via DVD iso now. I did this and the install went just fine. As exi1ed noted, if you ran the install script and it failed you'll need to reimage first before this can work.

The 1and1 FC4 image doesn't come with nano installed (go figure). You can do the following to edit the file on your server

#yum install nano
#nano aooi-installer.sh

Remember that, when using Putty, highlighting is your copy command and right click is your paste command.

[exi1ed0ne]

Better yet, vi is already on the box.

I'm assuming laeagle is a nix newbie, so editing the script in Windows (yech!) and uploading it to the server would be the most painless route. Installing and learning a new editor adds additional learning curve. There is plenty of time after the box is up to learn the on-board text editors.

Yeah man really... nano? Dont be that guy.

i've just been trying to use the aooi from a fresh server reload with fc4, i'm getting an error when rebooting and it's trying to access sda3

Code: Select all

  rc = apply(func, self.bindArgs(args))
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.46//usr/lib/anaconda/packages.py", line 567, in
 turnOnFilesystems
    diskset.savePartitions ()
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.46//usr/lib/anaconda/partedUtils.py", line 724,
 in savePartitions
    disk.commit()
error: Error: Error informing the kernel about modifications to partition /dev/s
da3 - Device or resource busy.  This means Linux won't know about any changes yo
u made to /dev/sda3 until you reboot - so you shouldn't mount it or use it in an
y way before rebooting.

> /var/tmp/anaconda-10.1.1.46/usr/lib/anaconda/partedUtils.py(724)savePartitions

-> disk.commit()

EDIT: never mind, it was a crappy 1and1 image, i recommend anyone doing this to reimage fc4 with plesk, i tried it without plesk and got the errors above
