Just compile it from source. If you don't know how to do that I can give you instructions command by command, just ask. I use CentOS5 on my boxes but I've never bothered with the RPM.

I installed an RPM of hobbit-4.2.0 called hobbit-4.2.0-7.el5.re.i386.rpm, which I probably got from here: * http://rpm.razorsedge.org/centos-5/RE/repodata/repoview/hobbit-4-4.2.0-7.el5... *<http://rpm.razorsedge.org/centos-5/RE/repodata/repoview/hobbit-4-4.2.0-7.el5.re.html> It includes the All-in-one patch. So I configured the cfg files and started hobbit, but I get this in hobbitlaunch.log:

This is the first time I've started it, so I presume that this is normal: "Cannot access checkpoint file /usr/libexec/hobbit/server/tmp/hobbitd.chk for restore". The problem looks like this: "Could not get shm of size 262144: No space left on device". I see that there are two similar issues listed on *http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/known-issues.html*<http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/known-issues.html>that relate to FreeBSD, but none of the sysctl keys listed are in this version of Linux:

cat /proc/version

Linux version 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5.centos.plus (mockbuild at builder6.centos.org) (gcc version 4.1.1 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-52)) #1 SMP Thu Oct 25 06:49:40 EDT 2007

Google returns 1 result for "Could not get shm of size" "No space left on device" and that was the Known Issues page I've already checked. Any ideas?

Also, I noticed that the hobbitd.pid file did not get deleted when hobbitd terminated. It seems like it should have been.

Many thanks,

Sebastian
