When installing CentOS (6.2), it installs a whole bunch of packages, but the installation is often very fast, it's hard to note the names of the packages. I have a couple of questions:
1) I'm guessing I could wait for the entire installation to complete and then query for the list of installed packages on the system. How do I do that?
Okay, I'm nearly there with getting my kickstart running.
Everything is fine until it starts to install the packages. I have listed all of the packages individually that I want (I got them from running "rpm -qa" to list all rpms installed) in the %packages section. I then downloaded and copied those rpms into the Packages folder on my installation image.
I have been using a virtual machine (Xubuntu 12.10, with VMWare on a windows host) for all my programming work, which I am trying to transition from a 32-bit install to a 64-bit install.
Every time I install a package:
sudo apt-get install <pkg>
apt-get displays a list of suggested packages. I have simply ignored these so far, but some of these suggestions are actually good (and some are not).
Gets me all packages installed on my Fedora 17 system:
Code:
yum list installed
Would be nice to list all packages without dependencies like 'bison' or 'ed'. Is it possible?
Sorry i found how to post in Ubuntu Forum :) , simple "new Thread" button, LOL !!!.
Anyway i can leave this question open here i think.
The following command create a list of installed packages on a machine, and then reinstall the same packages in another machine
it seems that the command work fine on Ubunt 32 Desktop , but on Ubuntu amd64 (Desktop) the

I have an existing CentOS installation which I'd like to install extra packages to.
I was looking through the list of packages with dselect, but pressed Return twice by mistake, thereby making it confirm and quit the [S]elect option.
When I go to the [I]nstall option, it's now suggesting to install a number of new packages that I don't want (and that have nothing to do with what I was looking for in the first place).
Since I haven't proceeded with the installation itself, is th
My /home directory was on the separate partition. By mistake I destroyed all the data on it. Now it's resized and formatted. It contains no directories but empty lost+found.
So I lost config data for soo many packages and I guess some packages could not work, or could work wrong. Am I right?
Is there a way to restore those many hidden subdirectories that packages created during installation?
