I have found (see reference) that restore the root ("/") is not as simple as as just executing the restore command when running in rescue mode. With the current emphasis being place on use of UUIDs in both Fedora and RHEL, the whole business of UUIDs need to be better documented.

[Bug 514046] New: Oracle-xe page for Spacewalk doesn't work
by Red Hat Bugzilla 16 Feb '10

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Oracle-xe page for Spacewalk doesn't work https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514046 Summary: Oracle-xe page for Spacewalk doesn't work Product: Fedora Hosted Projects Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: Deployment_Guide AssignedTo: mhideo(a)redhat.com ReportedBy: mschwage(a)gmail.com QAContact: rlerch(a)redhat.com CC: fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora Description of problem: Sorry about the classification of this. I didn't see Spacewalk anywhere in Bugzilla! Anyway, on the webpage https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/OracleXeSetup#Install, the install instructions don't work as advertised. There, it says "Configure the Oracle XE database by running # /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure" This did not set the system/sys name correctly. Yes, I know, the oracle-xe command comes from Oracle themselves, but on my RHEL53 machine it just refused to set the password correctly. Did I try to do it 10 times or more? Yes I did, and it did not work at all. Did I fat finger my password every single lousy time I tried it? No I did not, for I was able to create my password as easy as you please using my workaround below. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): oracle-xe-univ-10.2.0.1-1.0 oracle-instantclient-basic-10.2.0.4-1 oracle-instantclient-sqlplus-10.2.0.4-1 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do this on RHEL53 x86_64. Install the Oracle-XE software as listed. 2. Follow the instructions on https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/OracleXeSetup#Install, up to and including the "Test Your Connection with SQLPlus" part. 3. You fail to login. Actual results: Fail to login. Expected results: Successful login. Additional info: The workaround is to perform the following after running /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure : su - oracle . /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/oracle_env.sh /usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.4/client64/bin/sqlplus /NOLOG CONNECT / AS SYSDBA alter user sys identified by password; alter user system identified by password; sqlplus64 'sys@xe as sysdba' -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

RPM Guide and RPM Max
by John J. McDonough 17 Dec '09

17 Dec '09

At FUDcon, Florian Festi approached me about Docs updating the RPM Guide and the book, Maximum RPM, both of which have gotten a little stale. The RPM Guide was already on our radar, and Ben Cotton has taken point on getting that ready to be worked on. Maximum RPM is currently hosted at rpm.org, and does not appear to have been built with the old doc tools. There seem to be some specific dependencies on Fedora 8, so there will be a little work converting it to something more up to date. The other issue, though, is licensing. This probably won't be difficult to deal with but it is something that needs to be addressed. The current copyright holder is Red Hat. We will probably discuss this at an upcoming Docs Team meeting, but I did want to give everyone a heads-up that this is going on. We may also want to carry on some discussion on an rpm.org mailing list so that community is also aware of the effort. At this point not much has actually happened. Ben has moved the RPM Guide to git, but I don't think anything else has happened there, I have looked at the Maximum RPM sources and verified Florian's assessment that this isn't a straightforward build, and quaid is aware of the licensing issues. The RPM Guide is at: git.fedoraproject.org/rpmguide.git Maximum RPM is at rpm.org/git/max-rpm.git --McD
