RE: Kickstart Redhat 7.1 anaconda error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just noticed that the genhdlist was different for 7.1 (IIRC, it was the
same for 6.2 and 7.0).  I got the new genhdlist, but then it said that it
couldn't find the directory redhat-7.1/RedHat/RPMS.  I figured out that I
had to use genhdlist with the full path:

./genhdlist /mnt/rh71/redhat-7.1
instead of
./genhdlist ./redhat-7.1

It seems to be working now :)
