Installing beta 2 on CentOS 5 - Bad return status

[jpipdw]

Trying to install beta 2 - this is a 32 bit Centos5 system. Is centos5 supported? The packages I've been working with on Centos 7 are working just fine.

Hi,

What's the kernel that you use? The minimal supported version is 2.6.32

Thanks

[Mike Resseler]

I think that will be the problem. From the log it looks like he is using 2.6.18.

Can you confirm? uname -a should deliver you that information

Thanks

Mike

Ahh yes, that seems to be the issue. Thank you!
