Hi everyone,
I have a couple of questions.
The first question is regarding installing RedHat 5.0 from SCSI CDROM.
I have the RedHat PowerTools set (Six CD's). I created my boot disk and
went through the install, but it only got as far as installing packages
when it would hang. I tried it several times, and it hung at various
packages. I.E. one time it might make it through 90% of the packages
before hanging, then another time it might only make it through 20%. I
finally got it installed by doing a minimal install. Does anyone know
what might've caused something like this? I've been fooling around with
it since then, and haven't had any more hangups (with the computer at
least ;).
Another question about the SCSI drives. I can mount them up from root,
and I've modified /etc/fstab to mount them up just like I do from the
root # prompt, but they never mount at startup (even for root). I get a
message to the effect 'file system format iso9660 not supported'. I'm
not at the RedHat box, and that is from memory. Shouldn't /etc/fstab
mount them up? I've looked at man fstab, and followed the directions
there, does anyone know why it wouldn't work??
