To make the install floppys. Put a scratch floppy in "/dev/fd0". Download
the above file(s)
dd if=bootnet.img of=/dev/fd0
Note that there is a "drivers" floppy image for "other drivers". See the
RedHat documentation for what is on this floppy.
The following has been updated. Some of the items are the same as before
even though nothing changed. This is because the info is important and I
did not want to have to tell people to go and look at the older release notes.

2. Update to autorpm.config because it was sending mail to
root@dcdsv0.fnal.gov
autorpm-config-3.0-3.noarch.rpm
3*. Fermi Kerberos rpms along with the appropriate ssh are installed by
default in "Fermi Full Kerberized" mode for all workgroups except for
the following where a question is asked during the install. The
default choice for this question is "Fermi Full Kerberized". Again
this means "Full Kerberized" and thus NO system passwords.
"Fermi Generic Desktop"
"CDF"
"CDFoffsite"
"CDFonline"
"CDFlevel3"
"GenericFarm"
"BooNE"
"ODS"
4*. Added ncurses-devel into "development" because a "make menuconfig" needs
it.
5. Workgroup updates
Added the following workgroups
FnaluBatch
FermiVeryGeneric -- use for kickstart installs to
make your own workgroup
BooNE
Updated all the CDF workgroups to include
readline-devel
ncurses-devel
Transformed the PAT workgroup into the CPD workgroup.
This does not add or delete any rpms. Nor does it run the
after.rpms.sh script that modifies system files during install.
This only makes the system be a CPD system instead of a PAT system.
To make a existing PAT system think it is now a CPD system.
Install CPD-tag.*.rpm
mv /etc/PAT /etc/CPD
6. /contrib/laptops/dell
Updated the README because I had to remove the NVIDIA rpms as they
are NOT redistributable.
7. Upgraded UPS/UPD bootstrap to fix problem with perl. If you already have
ups/upd bootstrap loaded you need to upgrade manually with upd/ups and
not via this rpm.
upsupdbootstrap-2.2-4.i386.rpm
8. In /contrib/intelpro100/
The Intel Pro 100 driver from Intel.
9. Updated openafs.
openafs-fermi-1.2.2-6.i386.rpm
10. /contrib/kernel/
RedHat has released another errata kernel. It needs to
be tested so it will be in /contrib/kernel for a while.
We have not done ANY testing with this kernel, including AFS.
Note that you will need to upgrade the other rpms below for
use with this new kernel. Please test.
kernel-2.4.9-12.i386.rpm
kernel-2.4.9-12.i586.rpm
kernel-2.4.9-12.i686.rpm
kernel-headers-2.4.9-12.i386.rpm
kernel-source-2.4.9-12.i386.rpm
kernel-smp-2.4.9-12.i586.rpm
kernel-smp-2.4.9-12.i686.rpm
kernel-enterprise-2.4.9-12.i686.rpm
kernel-BOOT-2.4.9-12.i386.rpm
kernel-doc-2.4.9-12.i386.rpm
e2fsprogs-1.23-1.7.1.i386.rpm
e2fsprogs-devel-1.23-1.7.1.i386.rpm
filesystem-2.1.0-2.1.noarch.rpm
initscripts-5.84.1-1.i386.rpm
mkinitrd-3.2.6-1.i386.rpm
modutils-2.4.6-4.i386.rpm
tux-2.1.0-2.i386.rpm
11. Added mt-tools to the standard install. These are the
mt commands for tape.
12. Added some icons to the workgroups install screen.
13. Updated Fermi kerberos rpms. /contrib/kerberos/
krb5-fermi-1.3c-4.i386.rpm
krb5-fermi-login-1.3c-4.i386.rpm
krb5-fermi-config-1.5-7.i386.rpm
14. Added a utility which tells you if your ethernet port is in
full or half duplex mode.
/contrib/diag-ether/diag-ether-2.0-3.i386.rpm
15. Changed the "laptop" selection to do that same things as a
"Fermi Generic Desktop" install. The install in some case could
determine that you had a "laptop" and would suggest a "Laptop" install.
Problem was that this included only RedHat selections. Now it
includes Fermi selections.
16. Changed /etc/hosts.allow to NOT allow offsite ssh access.
________________________________________________________________________
Older info which is still relavant.
1. Adaptec scsi support is still poor, just not as bad as it was.
If your install hangs and you have adaptec scsi then reboot with
"linux apic" at the install boot prompt. This has helped at least
one user.
2. Install turns on IDE DMA by default. This can cause some
cdroms/disks to be "sad". So if you have problems during the install
in particular with it "hanging" the suggested fix is to turn dma off
during the install. This can be done by at the install prompt typing
linux ide=nodma
or
text ide=nodma
3. inetd and /etc/inetd.conf have been replaced with xinetd and /etc/
xinetd.d/ . Similar features but done differently.
4. Other RedHat features are still there.
5. The current kernel is still 2.4.3 . The test kernel in /contrib/kernel has
been removed as it is too old. New test version soon.
6*. You are able to install only via nfs. Ftp installs do not
work at this time. Still working on this. Should be back at a later
date.
7*. The default for firewall is off still. You can still select what you want.
8. Both text and graphical installs should work as long as they work
with the default RedHat install. The reason for the "if" is that the
normal RedHat installer will switch to "text" mode if it cannot do
graphical mode. Note that ftp installs only work in text mode.
9.* Cdrom installs are now available. Will post images
ftp:/linux.fnal.gov/linux/711/iso/
ftp:/linux1.fnal.gov/linux/711/iso/ (not really here until I get
more disk space)
