Hello everybody,
I need your help in installing linux from ftp.
Installation guide from Redhat site says that it can be done in 2 ways,
1. copying all rpm from 4 cd's & placing them together in one directory RPM ie under Install/RedHat/----------base
|__________RPMS *.
and
2. mounting all 4 cd's or their ISO's under disk1,disk2,disk3,disk4
ie /Install/Disk1
- - - - - - Disk2
- - - - - - Disk3
- - - - - - Disk4
and finally making Install directory visible to ftp client.
1st one works perfectly for me,
but when i tried the 2nd option, i was getting error while installing package hwdata-0.146.12.EL.1 rpm which is actually located in 2nd ISO mounted under /Install/Disk2/ .
I think redhat gets disk1 without any problem, but it is not getting disk2.
FYI
i am mounting all 4 iso's using command "mount /RHEL_CD_x ../Installation/Diskx", where x is 1,2,3,4.
any help appreciated.
Thankx.
