All,
We need to deploy RH9 to a few places where outside network access is a
no-go. So, here's what I was thinking, and I'd sure appreciate any
help/suggestions I could get.
Basically, I want to create a bootable DVD that has all three of the RH9
CD's as well as all of the up2date packages that are current to the install.
I have available a test computer that is identical to the machines to which
I will be deploying, and a Backpack USB DVD burner. Here are my
proposed/theoretical steps:
01) Do a fresh RH9 install on the computer with all of the required packages
(httpd, etc).
02) Copy the /root/anaconda-ks.cfg file to a floppy for later modification
03) # mkdir /tmp/rh9
04) do a "cp -r /mnt/cdrom/* /tmp/rh9" for each of the three cd's.
05) # mkdir /tmp/rh9/up2date
06) # up2date --download --tmpdir=/tmp/rh9/up2date
07) Make a burnable .iso dvd image. I could use some help on this one,
would it be:
mkisofs -J -r -T -l -V 'RH-9-Shrke' \
-b /tmp/rh9/images/bootdisk.img \
-c /tmp/rh9/boot.catalog \
-o /tmp/shrike-dvd.iso
08) Burn the .iso to the dvd on the usb port. I have *no* idea how to do
this. Can anybody clue me in?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Ben
