Hi,
I have a HP Proliant server and with Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz)
installed. When I visit the HP
site to check out drivers and software the offering are for either
RH Enterprise 3 or 4.
Can I assume that drivers created for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
will be suitable for FC 4?
Is the any correlation between the Enterprise versions and the FC
releases? I don't expect any
drivers or software i get to be "supported" but if I want to use,
say the system management
software to monitor the RAID, should i try the one intended for Enterprise 4?
Thanx.
Dp.
AFAIK there is no correlation between Fed 4 and RHEL4 at all. Just
look at the kernels they use.
Fed 4 uses 2.6.11 and RHEL4 uses 2.6.9. And Fedora 4 uses v4.0 gcc
and RHEL4 uses v3.22.
RHEL releases started way before Fedora.
If you get source versions of the software then give it a go.
Distros like CentOS might be worth looking at if you want a clone of
RHEL4 with continued updates
of drivers etc...
