Acronis 9.1 Install Help Please
Hi everyone. I am hoping that someone could give me some pointers on getting acronis 9.1 installed on my trixbox system.
I have run the installer and it all goes fine until compiling the kernel. Then it goes wrong and stops.
PLEASE could someone give me some simple instructions on what to do.
My trixbox version is 2.3.0.3
My Acronis version is 9.1 3718
make.log is as follows
DKMS make.log for snapapi26-0.7.5 for kernel 2.6.18-8.1.10.el5 (i686)
Mon Oct 29 00:34:40 GMT 2007

Thanks everyone.

only the very latest version of acronis supports centos . download the trial version and see if it installs. that DKMS issue is the acronis kernal module complaining. i have been right though it and the only fix is the latest version of acronis (which is really good BTW)
thanks for the reply.
When you say new version, do you mean version 11 or do you mean the newest build of 9.1. As far as i can see 9.1 is the newest enterprise edition that is available.
thanks again
Rob.
try loading the demo from the acronis website.
ohh i almost forgot you alos have to install the kernal sources
here is some notes i made
** add symlinks to lib/modules/2.6.18.xxxx that point to usr/src/kernals/2.6.18xxxx
yum -y install kernel-devel kernel
then check version ie
cd /usr/src/kernels
ls
should be 2.6.9-34.0.2.EL-i686 the i686 is the important bit !
cd /usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-34.0.2.EL-i686/include/linux
mv spinlock.h spinlock.h.old
wget http://nerdvittles.com/trixbox/spinlock.h
shutdown -r now
make sure you have gcc
yum info gcc
now install acronis
cd /
./setup.sfx
enter your serial number
** only if DKMS snapapi doesnt build
now build snapapi
dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.0 --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir /usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-34.0.2.EL-i686
please PM me if you need more help
