CentOS

Sorry to ask again, no more centos release will come ? and what about centos stream 8 and 9 ? Soon after the Red Hat's announcement about CentOS two new projects did start. They are AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux. Their mission is: Do what CentOS did (but better). CentOS 7 is a clone of RHEL 7. Similarl...

An alternative to EPEL is CentOS SIG's repo: The package 'centos-release-ansible-29' should be in the 'extras' repo.

Note though that EPEL and SIG pack ansible bit differently, and are thus
mutually exclusive on that aspect.

The only supported way from A to B is to back up the data and do a fresh install. Red Hat had tools that did work only on genuine RHEL, and not even on all installed systems. To install el7 now is a bit late -- it will be dead in one year. Both el8 and el9 do exists. If you want spiritual equivalent...

Adding noauto,nofail,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.idle-timeout=300 to options of /etc/fstab entry makes systemd generate an automount unit on boot. That is an alternative to autofs. The map in OP post does use wildcard ( * & ). That is kind of convenient -- one rule for many mounts. One could just ...

A disk has partition/volume(s). Those have filesystem. Filesystem has files. When you say that you "can access the secondary disk", we do assume that you mean that you have mounted the filesystem that is on the disk and therefore can access the files. A database engine is an application that reads/w...

FirewallD is a front-end . "User friendly" abstraction that hides the lower level details. Debian-based distros seem to have similar front-end, ufw (Uncomplicated Firewall). Up to el7, the kernel had netfilter for the rules. You were able to read (and write) those with 'iptables'. Starting with el8 ...

Can I remove them and keep only the last one or the last 2 one.

Yes. Package 'yum-utils' has utility 'package-cleanup' that can be used: It does actually call yum, so you get to [y/N] what it would remove.

See man package-cleanup for what else it can do.

I understand that Centos Stream (what I'm currently running) is at EOL? Not quite. CentOS Linux 8 is already EOL. CentOS 7 will be EOL in June 2024. CentOS Stream 8 will be EOL ~June 2024. CentOS Stream 9 will be EOL Summer 2027. The CentOS 7 aims to be bug-for-bug compatible with RHEL 7. CentOS Li...

I tried as root and I received this: Error: nvidia-x11-drv conflicts with ocl-icd-2.2.12-1.el7.x86_64 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest The ocl-icd is from EPEL and provides: repoquery --provides ocl-icd libOpenCL.so.1()...
