Hi, ;) I asked about "How to capture install screen. " to RedHat Documantation Team. And then I recived a replay. I'll attach that;) ------8k------8k------8k On Mon, 19 Mar 2001, Dongwon Kim wrote: Hi Kim, Don't apologize for your English, it is just fine and I understand what you are trying to explain. Unfortunately, we in "docs" only write the documentation, we don't solve problems with Anaconda. If I could, please believe that I would share with you all that I know. However, I have a suggestion for you that might help. If you have two systems that are networked, you can use one as an installation box and the other to take the screenshots. These instructions may be a little rough, but hopefully it will get you the information you need. These are the instructions I use for making screenshots. I install via NFS so it may be a little different for you. Box 1 -- The pre-installed linux system that is your workstation that will take the screenshots. Make sure that "xhost +" is entered so that the second system can send information to is. Box 2 -- the "test box" that will run the installation program. Using the latest copy of Red Hat Linux, boot the installation program. At the boot: prompt type "text display=IP:0" (without the quotation marks) -- Where the IP is the IP address of box 1. Next, enter the installation information as needed. After you enter the server name and directory containing Red Hat Linux, press the F2 help key. At the prompt type "anaconda -m nfs://mnt/source" (without the quotation marks). In a minute or two, the installation program should put the display on box 1, allowing you to take screenshots.
