Hi, I am trying to install FC6 manually, meaning I’m
mounting the CD and trying to install the necessary rpms by hand. The
reason for doing so is that I want to create a ppc NFS root file system on a
x86 machine. Ideally I would have my own install script that picks the
minimal set of rpms to install. My plan was to look through the install
cd and install the minimal set using the –root option to rpm. Has
anyone had experience doing this? Can the installer be used for what I
want to do? I tried installing just the base rpms as specified in the comps.xml
file however ran into some dependency issues. I presume the installer installs
other rpms behind the scences. I tried using the –nodeps option and
while things installed I got many install failures in the rpm scripts.
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks. -Matt Matt Rushton, Software Engineer |
