CentOS on IBM 7043-150, liblaus missing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello,

I found Pasi's site (http://centos.upi.iki.fi/pub/centos/4/os/ppc/)
describing how to get CentOS working on a IBM 7043-150 43p CHRP 604e
RS/6000 box.  I have the exact same machine.  I followed his
instructions and got the version of CentOS he provided working on my
system.

[root@murray ~]# uname -a
Linux murray 2.6.9-5.0.3.102.EC #1 Sun Mar 6 18:32:26 EET 2005 ppc ppc
ppc GNU/Linux
[root@murray ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS release 4.0 (Final)

I thank him for posting the files and his instructions!

Is anyone else running CentOS on IBM RS/6000 hardware?  Does anyone
know if CentOS will formally distribute a ppc version for my hardware?

I've only found one problem with CentOS so far -- liblaus is missing,
so I can't use passwd to change passwords.

[root@murray ~]# passwd richard
passwd: error while loading shared libraries: liblaus.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@murray ~]# ldd /usr/bin/passwd

        liblaus.so.1 => not found
        libselinux.so.1 => /lib/libselinux.so.1 (0x0fda0000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x0fc43000)
        libpam.so.0 => /lib/libpam.so.0 (0x0fc1a000)
        /lib/ld.so.1 (0x30000000)

Have you encountered this issue?  Any ideas on how to fix it?

Thank you again for helping me get my 7043-150 doing something useful!

Sincerely,

Richard

PS: Has anyone tried running other Linux distros?  I did not have any
luck booting the latest Debian (debian-31r0a-powerpc-binary-1.iso) or
NetBSD (2.0.2, prepcd.iso) on this system, but maybe I wasn't using
the right OpenFirmware commands.
