Replacing linux with os 10.3

I have a second hand g5 iMac that was surplussed by a local university. It is running yellow dog linux 6.1. I have neither the time nor inclination to figure out how to get things done in linux, I just need a family computer. I purchased os 10.3 to replace the linux os, but can't figure out how to do it. I'm more familiar with PCs. I tried holding down the option key on booting. I got a screen showing yld in one box and the install disc in a second box with a button showing a right arrow and a second button showing (I think) a refresh curved arrow. I selected the install disc and clicked the right arrow. At that point I got a grey screen with a circle/slash and nothing further happened. Help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
To do an install, start the machine while holding the C key down until after the tone. You will them be started on the install disk...by the way, this is a full retail version; disk with a black face and large grey or silver X on it? If a grey disk, you can't use it unless it was for that machine to begin with.
Once started on the disk, select the language if it asks, then just proceed with the installation process. It may want to erase the HD since it was setup with Linux.
If you have more questions, just ask away.

Installing Oracle Database 11gR2 on Linux with Unbreakable Ente. Kernel

Hello,
I have Oracle Linux 5.5 with Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel.
what do I need to have/prepare to install Oracle database 11gR2 on it?
the hardware part and the partitions are done!
1-
Do I need to install/run Oracle Validated Configuration RPM? even if I have Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel?
if yes does in means the Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel does not prepare/configure the system to host database?
2-
With any of the above
do I still need create or edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file, and add or edit lines similar to the following:
fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.file-max = 6815744
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 536870912
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
net.core.rmem_default = 262144
net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 1048586
I saw allot of docs out there, but none answered these questions!
so please do not post docs or links to a general sites!
Thank you for the help

The intention of Oracle UEK is quite obviously Oracle specific, so I think it is legitimate to ask why not to include the Oracle specific kernel configuration file. The UEK is a drop-in replacement for the existing kernel. Why would we include the oracle-validated configuration options into the kernel package when we already have a perfectly good oracle-validated RPM that can be used with both kernels? Also, the UEK may be Oracle specific, but it's not database specific. Keep in mind that Oracle has thousands and thousands of products. :) I run the UEK on lots and lots of servers, many of which don't run database and many of which have completely different /etc/sysctl.conf configurations.
The list of available packages and add-on's at http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL5/5/base/x86_64/ is growing. So perhaps it's just a matter of continued development.
Not sure what the point of this statement is: there are no plans to incorporate the oracle-validated configuration into the kernel, as it already exists in oracle-validated.

UEFI boot problems with Linux 3.7 kernels

According to this thread in the Arch Linux forums, some people are having problems booting some versions of the Linux 3.7 kernel. Here are the numbers:
3.7.3 works for some, but not others
3.7.4 works for some, but not others
3.7.5 works
3.7.6 does not
3.7.7 works
3.7.8 does not
The problem occurs with both the Gummiboot and rEFInd boot managers, and has so far only been reported on Lenovo hardware. I have a ThinkPad W530, and can confirm that on Gummiboot, 3.7.6 does not work, whereas 3.7.5 and 3.7.7 does work. It looks like a Lenovo-related issue to me. It has only been reported on Arch Linux as far as I know. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Thanks for your reply. Yes, the cursor did blink in the top left corner.
I gather from your comments that, if I install a new HD, I will be able to re-install the Windows 7 32-bit O/S from the Product Recovery DVD GMR410014EN0, which was supplied by Toshiba with the laptop and it would also follow, if that is true, that I would be able to Format (Boot n' Nuke) the existing HD and re-install the O/S onto it before I get my friend to lay out cash for a new HD.
I would appreciate your confirmation that the above conclusions are correct as I was under the, hopefully incorrect, impression that the Recovery Disk could only be used to repair an existing system. I have the Microsoft licence number as it is printed on the bottom of my friends machine.
Thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.

How jvm threads works on new Linux 2.6 scheduler with SMP kernell

Hi,
i'm using Sun JDK Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0_14-b03, mixed mode) to run tomcat,
anyone knows How JVM threads works on new Linux 2.6 scheduler with SMP kernel?
i ask this, because in a single processor machine the tomcat replies more fast than a dual processor machine, maybe the reason is, that SMP load balancing made for new scheduler, slow down the JVM performance for threads? there is a way to avoid this?
reference about Linux Scheduler: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-scheduler/?ca=dgr-lnxw09LinuxScheduler
bug that have "same" problem: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5038858
thanks for any insight

This is bug:
6328462 Linux getCurrentThreadCpuTime() does not match with getThreadCpuTime(currentThread)
It will be fixed in:
- JDK 6.0 (Mustang) build b63
- JDK 1.5.0_07 build b01
The problem is that the HotSpot VM takes the stat info from the file'/proc/$tid/stat'
which is incorrect on Linux kernels 2.6+ with NPTL because this file aggregates
per-process (.vs. per-thread) usage on these kernels.
The file '/proc/self/task/$tid/stat' still has the per-thread usage and must be used instead.
There is also a performance bug:
6200022: JVMTI GetCurrentThreadCpuTime slow on Linux
This bug is about using new Linux posix compliant process clocks (2.6.10) :
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-10/msg00117.html
It is too late to fix this in Mustang but can be possible in one of the update releases.
Thank you for posting the question!

Reason enough IMO. But anyway... you refer to the Traditional build method in the wiki, but is it possible you didn't really read it? Or maybe you only skimmed it? Did you run make menuconfig? Did you try to build everything in instead of using modules? That mkinitcpio output suggests that you did.
As suggested there for first-timers, it's a good idea to start with a kernel configuration that is known to work - the Arch config is the obvious choice, but there are other sources e.g. http://kernel-seeds.org/ .

Replace ieee80211 with kernel26?

Hi all
It has been a while since I last did an Pacman -Syu and was surprised to see this message
:: Synchronizing package databases...
current [################] 100% 47K 23.0K/s 00:00:02
extra [################] 100% 227K 82.2K/s 00:00:02
:: Replace ieee80211 with kernel26 from "current"? [Y/n]
Is it correct?
I've searched the forum and read the news about the new kernel - but there didn't seem to be anything specific about this. If there is please point me in the right direction.
I have Arch installed on a laptop with a Intel 2100 wireless card.
Thanks

ipw2100 in the kernel is working nicely.
You must also enable ieee80211 network stack, with the encryption you want ( likely WEP)
However, you have to unpack the firmware manually ( ipw2100-fw-1.3.tgz) to /lib/firmware. It is not provided by the kernel(it's not GPL).
The firmware can be found at ipw2100.sourceforge.net.
Or you can do a pacman -Sw ipw2100 and pick the firmware files ( You don't need the module).

46c with 46d_ext kernel sles and oracle platform question

Dear sap on linux community,
I currently have R/3 4.6c with 46d_ext kernel running on sles8 and ora 9204 (all 32-bit)
As part of an upgrade project I want to move current system to sles10 and oracle 10 (all 64-bit). I am using that note as a starting point.
According to the note oracle 9 client is required with ora10 db ?
Why is this ?
This leads to some conflicting results from pam.
pam states that it is supported to run ora10 64-bit on sles10.
But as far as I know it is not suported to install ora9 client on sles10.
Please explain.
Do I need a db server with sles10ora10 and a ci app server with sles9ora9 ?
Rgds, Eirikur.

Hello,
I strongly recommend you to take a look at the note <a href="http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/521230">521230: FAQ: Client software 9i or earlier on UNIX</a>
The oracle client to be used on a SAP system running on UNIX depends on the <b>KERNEL</b>
You are upgrading
- Your OS ( from SLES 8 to 10 )
- Your Oracle DB ( from 9i to 10g )
Your kernel is NOT changing, therefore the oracle client still is the same as before.
NOTE. Even when the oracle client still is 9i, you must have version 9.2.0.7 or 9.2.0.8
Please, do not confuse the oracle client version (9i) with the RDBMS version (10g)
There is no conflict with PAM. PAM talks about RDBMS version, not about client versions.
At the end you will have a DB server running oracle 10g (RDBMS) and CI/AS runing kernel 46D_EXT with Oracle <b>CLIENT</b> 9i

How to verify RTSJ use linux real time kernel?

Hi,
I'm complete newbie into this area and I'm trying out the RTSJ 2.1 beta Linux. I'm using this on Ubuntu with the linux real time kernel. Is there anyway to find out whether the real time kernel is being actually used or in other words is there a way to find out whether RTSJ works fine with the real time kernel on Ubuntu? I see that the programs get compiled and run irrespective of whether I use the real time kernel or the generic kernel.
Thanks,
Vidura

Hi,
I would assume, like other distributions, that you either boot the real-time kernel or you don't. uname should show you what you are running, but you'd have to ask the Ubuntu folk what you should see for the RT kernel.
To see if you are benefiting from real-time, you need to run a RTSJ app that tracks deadline misses or measures latency/jitter. Try it on the non-real-time kernel and the real-time one and see what you get. Some of the examples in the "Getting Started" guide should be usable for these purposes.

Arch freezes after about 10 minutes with new kernel [SOLVED]

As the title says: Arch freezes after about 10 minutes with new kernel (2.6.27). I can only move a mouse, but everything else is frozen. Even restarting X doesn't do a trick. It doesn't work at all. Frozen.
I don't get any kind of error message (oh really?), so what's the problem..?

Yeah... I'm using nvidia... So the problem is nvidia drivers, not the Linux kernel?
Edit: My card is nVidia GeForce 8800 Ultra. I can't get driver information now, because I'm using WinXP right now. I'll check it later.
Did you make a new install or just updated?
You can try to reinstall old kernel with:
pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/kernel(version you want).pkg.tar.gz
if you made a new install you may have to install the xorg keyboard driver and so.
By the way, there are a few diferent packages for nvidia drivers. Check wich is yours.
Also check /var/log/ folder for errors.
Updated kernel.
And as I said, I'll check the driver later.

Suspend / Resume problem with -ck kernels.

Sometimes with the linux-ck kernel my laptop doesn't suspend / resume correctly.
Sometimes when suspending my laptop will take "extra long" to suspend.
When it resumes the processor & fan will turn on, but the suspend light will still be blinking and the screen doesn't turn on. Sometimes (but not always) the caps-lock light will start blinking after I try to wake it up, like a kernel panic. It happens more often when closing the lid to suspend, but has happened while suspending manually.
This only happens with -ck kernels. I have tried both the linux-ck and linux-ck-corex kernels with same result. This started happening around kernel 3.0.8 I believe. I thought it was a bug that would be fixed, but it still occurs.
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T410s, Intel Core i5, Intel graphics. I use the TLP scripts for power savings, and Xfce-Power-Manager for my power manager. I can see nothing relevant in the logs. Suspend / Resume always works with the "official" kernel.
Any ideas?

Ok, I think I narrowed the problem down to the BFS scheduler.
I compiled "linux-bfs" from the AUR, installed it and rebooted and lo and behold my suspend / resume problem was back. Rebooted with the stock kernel, did about 10 suspend & resume cycles in a row... and it worked great each time.
Sometimes when using linux-bfs or linux-ck, I can "revive" the system after a bad resume, by closing the lid and opening it slowly. Also I know the screen is just not "off", because the caps lock key light will not respond. If the caps-lock key light starts blinking (on-and-off) after a resume, I assume it is a kernel panic, and nothing besides a forced power-off will fix it.

Replacing bash with dash or zsh as default shell

Do these packages (except initscripts) really need bash? Debian uses dash as its default shell, I think Arch at least need to offer a possibility for using shells other than bash as default.
Any thoughts?

Demon wrote:Why not? I'm just exploring the possibilities.
zsh is not completely backwards-compatible with bash (not that bash is "backwards" in any real way). There's always a chance that, without the bash interpreter installed, some utilities written in bash won't work properly. Also, sh in Arch is distributed in the bash package, so uninstalling it will pull those packages with it.

Remove/replace Gummiboot with GRUB?

Are their any how-tos / wiki on the best way to remove and replace gummiboot with GRUB. This is the closest discussion I could find (the opposite of what I'd like to do):
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=183210
I have Window 7 installed using bios to boot. Cannot change Windows 7 to UEFI to match Arch as Win7 uefi isn't supported on this laptop. (already tried as well)

I need boot menu where Arch GPT UEFI and Win7 MBR BIOS can coexist.
Thanks!
Last edited by hydn (2014-10-14 21:22:48)

Grub won't offer you to boot alternatively from UEFI and BIOS. Only the boot manager of your firmware can do that, if it supports it (my ASUS motherboard do) (to access it, I need to press F8 while the machine boot but this depends of your firmware) and you will have to choose the way you want to boot from your UEFI/BIOS. You will then need two bootloaders, one for BIOS, one for UEFI (you can use your Windows 7 bootloader to boot Windows). The reason of this is that is your firmware which decides to put your system in BIOS or UEFI mode and once it has decided in which system your computer should boot, a bootloader can't revert the decision. There are versions of grub for BIOS and for UEFI but there can't exist a single version allowing you to choose between the two systems.
If your firmware allow easily to switch between the two, you could:
1) Partition your hard disk with an MBR (required for BIOS booting Windows 7), mark the Windows partitions bootable and install a standard MBR to the boot sector of your hard disk.
2) Have an EFI partition (type ef00) with a UEFI bootloader (which may be gummiboot or grub, but it will necessarily be UEFI aware only, unable to start Windows 7) configured to boot archlinux.
This way a BIOS boot should boot windows 7 and an UEFI boot should boot archlinux. Now the feasibility of that depends of your motherboard (could you easily switch from UEFI/BIOS, does the firmware accepts to boot an UEFI system from an MBR partition?).
You could also boot archlinux in BIOS mode. You will not loose anything, given the fact that Linux don't currently really use UEFI or Bios once it is booted and both system can then be seen by the same bootloader (for example grub).
Note: to remove gummiboot, simply remove the package. Use efibootmgr (efibootmgr -b xxxx -B, where xxxx is the number shown by efibootmgr) to remove the boot entry. But read what I tell you before, no bootloader except the one of your firmware could allow you to choose between BIOS and UEFI booting.

Hi all,
I've noticed that with some kernels, I can't get oss to work. The problem is that it fails relinking kernel modules.
