  1. Scientific Linux? Sabah Salih The School of Physics & Astronomy The University of Manchester Manchester M13 9PL Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  2. Experiments Software ATLAS: http://linux.web.cern.ch/linux/scientific3/certification/sub/envATLAS_offline.shtml BaBar: Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  3. Experiments Software Babar From Martin Bly talk Migration of Babar community from RH 7.3 batch service smooth after installation validated by Babar for batch workBatch system using Torque/Maui versions from LCG rebuilt for SL3, with some local patches to config parameters (more jobs, more classes).  Stable.

  4. Installation Desktop Laptop Servers Workernode 1- CD 2- Kickstart 3- PXE Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  5. CD [root@pc94 tmp]# rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/303/i386/SL/RPMS/yum-conf-303-2.SL.noarch.rpm Retrieving ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/303/i386/SL/RPMS/yum-conf-303-2.SL.noarch.rpm warning: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.nN1vgq: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 82fd17b2 Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:yum-conf ########################################### [100%] [root@pc94 tmp]# [root@pc94 tmp]# yum update yum Resolving dependencies Dependencies resolved I will do the following: [update: yum 2.0.7-7.SL.noarch] Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages Getting yum-2.0.7-7.SL.noarch.rpm yum-2.0.7-7.SL.noarch.rpm 100% |=========================| 130 kB 00:00 Running test transaction: Test transaction complete, Success! yum 100 % done 1/2 Completing update for yum - 2/2 Updated: yum 2.0.7-7.SL.noarch Transaction(s) Complete [root@pc94 tmp]# [root@pc94 tmp]# yum upgrade Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  6. However: • One need to install • k3b • Xmms • Multires • Xcdroast Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  7. XCDROAST disable the root requirement by editing the files /etc/security/console.apps/xcdroast and /etc/pam.d/xcdroast My files look something like this and it works for me on SL302 /etc/security/console.apps/xcdroast PROGRAM=/usr/sbin/xcdroast /etc/pam.d/xcdroast auth sufficient pam_rootok.so auth required pam_console.so account required pam_permit.so #auth sufficient pam_rootok.so #auth sufficient pam_timestamp.so #auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth #session optional pam_xauth.so #session optional pam_timestamp.so #account required pam_permit.so #auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  8. Kickstart via NFS 1. Make a mount point (not strictly necessary): mkdir /mnt/disk 2. Download the various ISO files for SL. There were four for 3.0.3. 3. Make a directory where you'll place the on-line distribution: mkdir /SL mkdir /SL/3.0.3 4. Mount each ISO in turn and copy the files from it to the hard drive, as: mount -o loop SL.303.093004.i386.disc1.iso /mnt/disk cd /mnt/disk tar cvf - . | (cd /SL/3.0.3; tar xvfp -) cd umount /mnt/disk mount -o loop SL.303.093004.i386.disc2.iso /mnt/disk etc. Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk

  9. 5. After the ISO's have been "unpacked" into /SL/3.0.3 (or whatever you choose to call it), export the directory. I.e., add the following line to /etc/exports: /SL/3.0.3 *.ucdavis.edu(ro) where you would replace *.ucdavis.edu by your own domain, then type: exportfs -r 6. At this point you should be able to do NFS installations, assuming, of course, that you have all the NFS "plumbing" already set up. I think that basically amounts to starting the NFS and netfs services. 7. You can initiate the installation in a variety of ways. You may be able to boot from a floppy. See, for instance, /SL/3.0.3/images/bootdisk.img. If you copy that to a floppy via: dd if=bootdisk.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k you should get a bootable floppy, that will ask you for the type of installation (local CD, NFS, etc.). I haven't tried this.

  10. PXE We have not done any pxe installation, we hope to hear from RAL experience Sabah@hep.man.ac.uk
