Hello all,
I am doing a ftp kickstart install. I receive the following error:
"Unable to read header list. This may be due to a missing file or bad
media"
On the alt-F3 screen the following is shown:
"IOError ftp error occurred getting
ftp://10.2.x.x/var/redhat.disks/redhat-9.0/RedHat/base/hdlist 550 var no
such file or directory"
My redhat-9.0 dir contains all the files off the RH 9 CDs plus some updated
RPMs from the RedHat site. When I updated the RPMs on my server,
I ran gendlist to update the hdlist file: ./genhdlist --withnumbers
/var/redhat.disks/redhat-9.0
When I ran genhdlist, I did not receive any errors.
Any idea what is wrong?
It seems to be that running genhdlist didn't re-create the
hdlist/hdlist2 files, or it didn't re-create them in the right place.
When you run your hdlist command - check to make sure that the date on
those files is updated to the time you ran the command. The files should
be in your /var/redhat.disks/redhat-9.0/base/ directory.
