Hello,
I'm curious where I can find the config for the kernel included
with the
CentOS 5.2 x86_64 installer. I need to verify hardware compatibility
(especially ethernet and SATA) prior to making a purchase decision,
and
reckon that seeing what's included with the installer would be the
most
direct way.
Thanks for any leads,
/boot/config-<version> if you have a 5.2 system already running. If
not you could probably just ask here what driver/module you're looking
for.
Thanks for the reply, Jim. I'm curious what the kernel included on the
install disc supports, more than anything. We have a workstation
configuration that we recommend to labs around the university. In the
past few months we've migrated a large number of existing
installations from Fedora to CentOS. Unfortunately, our current
workstation setup doesn't have ethernet support in the 5.2 install
kernel, which became a problem when we were creating a guide for labs
to follow when installing CentOS. So, we need to ensure that the next
recommended system will be supported by the install kernel as well as
the post-install kernel (which I understand I can review in /boot/
config-<version>).
Cheers,
Ian
