Hi all,
I'm trying to make my own customized installation CD for RedHat 7 and I have
a couple of questions to You.
First, on the RedHat 7 ISO image, there's a directory (/RedHat/base)
including a couple of files, e.g. comp and hdlist and a couple of image
files. As far as I've understood, the comps file describes the packages
located on the CD. And I've read that the file hdlist includes headers for
of all the packages included on the CD. Is that right? But the other files
in that directory, the images, what are for, and where in the installation
process are they used?
The images are loaded during installation as far as I know as disk images
in memory.
Second, If I change the content of the packages on the cd, i.e. the contents
of the /RedHat/RPMS directory on the cd, then I understand that I have to
change the content in the comps file to match the included packages. But do
You have to use genhdlist conatined in the anaconda package.
I don't know exactly when and when not to update with genhdlist. But to be
on the save side I always run genhdlist when I change filepackages in RPMS
and also when I change the comps-file.
I also have to regenerate the hdlist file? Is so, how do I do that? Do I
also have to change anything on the images contained in the /RedHat/base
directory?
Don't think so.
Finally, I need to install PercRAID drivers and drivers for the network
interfaces. Where and how do I do that?
Best Regards,
Peter Lewandowski
