[Starburst]

@overseer, did you see the public beta for CWP on AlmaLinux 9 is available?

Guess I know what I'll be doing tomorrow. 

[overseer]

Whoo-hoo!
(But my momma taught me how to count, so I have to go from 7 to 8 before I go to 9!)

[Starburst]

I think you can use ELevate to go from CentOS 7 to AlmaLinux 9.

Maybe this new fancy common core math? 

[Starburst]

Yup, you are right. Can only ELevate after you've gone up to CentOS 8.4 or higher. :/

Hello

I can not install Alma directly?

You mean I have to use this

https://wiki.almalinux.org/documentation/migration-guide.html#migrating-from-centos-versions-lower-than-8-4
and install Centos 8 and then update it to

OPS
?

Thanks

Hello

When I use these commands
cd /usr/local/src
wget http://centos-webpanel.com/cwp-el8-latest
sh cwp-el8-latest

How does it recognize to install CentOS 8/stream, Alma Linux, or Rocky Linux?

Thanks



Thanks

From scratch, the CWP script automatically queries your OS.

Is this still in beta?

[overseer]

Yes, still a workable beta. (Just beware of one issue with encryption rounds and logging in, and that CWP Migration does not work with EL9 currently.)

To fix the login issue, edit /etc/login.defs
find:
SHA_CRYPT_MAX_ROUNDS 10000
replace with
#SHA_CRYPT_MAX_ROUNDS 10000
Then set a new password for the affected user.
