In the name of God
Hi All,
Please HELP me!
I have a confusing problem with installing Redhat Linux 7.1 on my Alpha 21264 workstation.
My workstation's mother board is UP1100 includeing a 21264A processor and I have included an IDE hard disk as primary master and an IDE cdrom as primary slave.
I'm booting my system using two floppy disks produced with "dd" command and I'm doing booting using the followind command :
boot dva0 -flags "root=/dev/fd0 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=1"
the boot process starts normally and goes . after selecting language and some other things it prompts me to choose media I'm going to install linux from it.
I select CDROM and put Redhat linux 7.1 for Alpha's CD to CDROM the installation process tries to run "anaconda" but here it fails and says:
running anaconda ....
exec : permission denided.
then it fails and reject's the operation. so I can not install linux.My question is that what kind of permissions can be in a raw computer having no operating systems ?
why anaconda fails to run ?
Please note that I have downloaded iso image files of redhat linux 7.1 for alpha from redhat's ftp site and I did this downloading using Windows2000 & download accelerator!
and then after downloading I've burned a CD from that image using "Nero CD burner".
I tested the burned CD, I think it is all right because I could read it both in Linux & windows and I could boot my Alpha workstation using that CD and I reached to installation method choosing ( text only , rescue ,...) but after selecting ever of them I reached to the proposed error ( permission denided while running exec to invoke anaconda )
PlEASE HELP ME.
Thanks & Best Regards,
