Installing 6.8 From DVD1.iso, Changes

Downloaded 6.8 DVD1.iso, dd to stick. Went through same selections I have gone through since 6.2, only this time it got to the end and stated it couldn’t find rear, which is under “backup client”.

OK, try it again without rear. This time it’s yum-plugin-ovl from base
(?). Then chrony, also in base (?). Then flightrecorder, libreswan, at least 2 of openmpi & co. and finally unbound, which is a rather apt description of my current mental state.

So, a heap of stuff has either moved to DVD2 or is new and lives on DVD2. The same set of selections, especially if you choose all the optional packages of a group, may not work as they previously did in the install of <= 6.7. Cheers, Zube

    This may well be. The only things that were specifically made sure to work with DVD1 are the default installs.

    I am certainly willing to try to get other installs to work, and would be glad to take input where we can add to the list, which comes from here:

    https://git.CentOS.org/summary/sig-core!comps.git

    (Click on tree in the latest commit, then the file splittree-disk1.lst.x86_64 or splittree-disk1.lst.i386)

    Those are the packages that go on DVD1 for the CentOS-6 iso builds.

    By all means, I will take updates / patches to that list.
