As to the CD-RW, all current releases of Red Hat Linux currently have IDE cdrom support compiled in instead of modular. It would, though, make it easier to get CD-Rs working if it were modular. The aha1505 and 3c509 cards are not detected or asked about by default in the text installer as they are ISA cards. There isn't a good way to probe for ISA cards, and if you don't select expert mode, then the installer doesn't try to ask about ISA hardware. My understanding of why the hostname is on the same line in /etc/hosts is so that network services such as sendmail and apache don't hang on startup if the network interface does not come up on boot katzj answered most of these issues (thanks). ls120: We will be added /etc/fstab support for it soon. cd-r/w: I will bring this issue up internally and find a resolution. >My understanding of why the hostname is on the same line in /etc/hosts is so

I thought "localhost.localdomain" was used for that reason.
Is it considered normal to have a network card configured properly and not to
have its ip address in /etc/hosts?
The install programm asked for an hostname, and I gave it a fqdn.
I made a text/expert install (workstation)
This is my /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain
This is my /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 i5.mydomain.dom i5 localhost.localdomain localhost
I think it should be:
/etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=i5.mydomain.dom
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
my.ip.address i5.mydomain.dom i5
you can also try "linux isa" at the syslinux prompt to bring up a dialog for configuring isa devices ... also, beta2 should have better support for the ls120; please let us know if there are any problems with it ... thanks for your report! I'm opening more specific bug for beta2 (for ls120 and cdrw), since I've used a too generic summary for this bug and some of the issues have been resolved. User split out bug report into several simpler ones, as this one is too complex. |
