RHCE is the premiere cert. as far as Linux is concerned. Its the second toughest IT cert., after the CCIE. Ofcourse, you also have options of the vendor-neutral LPI and SuSE's new cert. But these are online exams, and do not test your practical skills as much the RHCE does. Needless to add, only certs will get you nowhere. Experience and skills count a lot too. > info abt training centres in mumbai is also required. If you're planning for RHCE, I can give information about a person (not me) who teaches industry-specific Linux. Contact me off-list if interested. > thanks > > Shrinivas Nayak > Founder of UPA (Unemployed People's Alliance) Heh. What's that? Regards, Nadiem. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

How to DualBoot Debian/RHEL
by Rony Bill 11 Mar '05

11 Mar '05

Dear Friends, I tried out the EduMorphix live CD and after that I installed it in my HDD as it is a Debian GNU distro and I want to try it out. Everything went OK but for safety, I did not install the LILO and planned to setup dual boot in the RHEL grub loader. I even visited the site for instructions on dual booting multiple linux distris. Below is the details of my system. As per the site's instructions, I copied 3 files from /boot of debian to /boot of RHEL. There is no initrd-xxxx.img file though. These are the 3 files in /boot of the debian in /dev/hda12 config-2.4.25-lck1 vmlinuz ....This is an executable file vmlinuz-2.4.25-lck1 This is my grub.conf in RHEL in /dev/hda8 # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,7) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda9 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/hda default=1 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,7)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS (2.4.21-4.EL) root (hd0,7) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-4.EL ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi initrd /initrd-2.4.21-4.EL.img title EduMorphix GNU Debian .....This I added root (hd0,11) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.25-lck1 ro root=LABEL=/ title DOS rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 Still I get an error of file not found and no booting takes place. I would like to know, my RHEL's /boot is on /dev/hda8 but it is shown as hd0,7 not hd0,8 in grub.conf. My Debian is on /dev/hda12 (from fdisk), so using the same analogy, I made (hd0,11) but it detects it as an 82 partition and cannot mount it. I don't have any ext2 partitions in my system. Whats going on? All tips and tricks welcome. Thanks and Regards, Rony.

Would anyone host a CentOS mirror in India ?
by Sriram N 11 Mar '05

11 Mar '05

Hi all: I'm taking CentOS 4.0 via Bit Torrent. I went to #centOS and met some helpful people there. The build master for the i386 / x86_64 / PPC platforms for CentOS , who goes by the name z00dax, asked me if I knew any high speed servers in India that might host CentOS. Any tips on whom to ask in India ? -- Sriram __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - now with 250MB free storage. Learn more. http://info.mail.yahoo.com/mail_250
