package install on CML

[#1]

Hi, 

I need to install an OS package (yum install ...) -- in order to install packages needed for a (CML) R session. 

How can I do it on CML ? 

apparently I cannot do it from the session terminal (on /home/cdsw) 

thanks

@grlzz Please take a look of below doc:

thanks  @GangWar

in our case I think we have to go with 

https://docs.cloudera.com/machine-learning/cloud/runtimes/topics/ml-customized-runtimes.html

as we have to install cmake  (via yum install) 

right?

Yes.

hi @smdas

Thanks 

I could not test it test, as our CML workspace had some issues (it crashed upon upgrade -- CE support is on it) -- we will try with a new one

thanks
