I'm attempting to install RedHat rawhide from ftp.redhat.com into an LPAR on an Zseries box, everything has went fine except for a few questions I have. 1) It doesn't seem to create /etc/passwd and /etc/group in /mnt/dest/ when installing the RPMS, so rpm complains about not being able to set ownership of lots of files, everything ends up being owned by root. 2) Because of the /etc/passwd problem, passwd doesn't let me set a root password. 3) It didn't seem to install a kernel into /mnt/dest/boot 4) It didn't run silo or zilo (I've only heard mention of zilo on this list), so I can't boot from dasd. How should I proceed to get this up and running? We have SuSe on our other LPAR, if that could help somehow. Thanks Bart Dorsey jdorse@acxiom.com
