RedHat
Linux
Versions 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 9
The
Linux Install Server, linuxload.itc.virginia.edu, is used to install
RedHat via NFS. Installation instructions in "BasicInstall"
(see sidebar) are generic. These instructions include links when
there are necessary modifications, generally by RedHat version.
"Known Issues" identify specific
problems that have been encountered. "Archived
Instructions" are by version and model and refer specifically
to the hardware on Dell computers purchased through the Desktop
Computing Initiative (DCI) program.
Post-install Modifications
All
installations should be followed by the recommended post-install
instructions that insure a minimum
of security. Failure to sufficiently secure your linux computer
may result in your being blocked from the network.
Updates
RPMs
are available on linuxload.itc.virginia.edu in the directory /export/redhat-versNo/
for versions 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, and 9. Refer to the document Mounting
File Systems for details on syntax.
Known
Issues
With
RedHat 7.3, samba (as installed) fails with the current version
of the NetApp (used to access home directories on blue.unix). If
using version 7.3, you must uninstall both samba-common
and samba-client. Then use the following links to download
version 2.2.7-1.7.3 of both samba-common
and samba-client
and install them.
