[chef] Re: Re: Bootstrap for CentOS6 client

[Bryan Berry < >]

I strongly recommend using the omnibus installer for centos 6 clients. You get ruby 1.9 and an up-to-date chef version w/out much effort

w/ in the newer versions of chef there is a also a nice bootstrap template for centos 6

Yes, it's possible, but centos6 bootstrap script is not available. 

You can create your own bootstrap script, or modify exiting one. 

At the same time, RBEL provides ready-to-use RPMS, although Chef is quite old(0.10.6): http://blog.frameos.org/2011/05/19/installing-chef-server-0-10-in-rhel-6-scientificlinux-6/

Is it possible to use the bootstrap  method on the client if the last one is
CentOS6 ? According to the chef's docs this scenario supports CentOS5 and
Ubuntu versions only .

Like : #knife bootstrap IP_ADDR -d centos6  ?
