deploying_e.f.a._on_clean_centos_installation
This is an old revision of the document!
It is possible to run E.F.A. on a VPS that only grants you the option to do a bare installation of CentOS.
Note that this is only for experienced users and should be avoided for normal usage unless you really have to.
Warning: Building E.F.A. should only be done by users with extensive Linux knowledge.
Requirements
You will need the following requirements:
- Centos 6 x64 minimal installation pre-installed
- If you have the option partition the disk as:
- 512MB EXT3 /boot
- LVM Physical volume for the rest (call it vg_00):
- 8GB / (call it lv_root)
- 1GB /tmp (call it lv_tmp)
- 4GB SWAP (call it lv_swap)
- xxGB /var (call it lv_var) (the reset of your disk space)
- Atleast 30GB of harddrive space
- 4GB memory
- Active internet connection (About 0.5 ~ 1GB will be downloaded, depending on the needed updates.)
- Free access over the internet (minimum is http/https access)
- A bunch of free time
Start building
- Make sure the system is fully updated:
yum -y update
- Install wget if it is not already installed:
yum -y install wget
- Get the installation script:
- Make the script executable:
chmod 700 prepare-build-without-ks.bash
- Start the installation:
./prepare-build-without-ks.bash
