Is this a problem with Red Hat Linux 8.0? Yes. Problem still exists in Red Hat 8.0 rescue cd. This should be fixed with the change to how the rescue CD is done in Red Hat Linux 9. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020513 Description of problem: I just tried (twice to be sure) booting the Red Hat Rescue CD on a bootable scsi cdrom drive The cdrom is detected (by BIOS) as a bootable cdrom, and it boots. after standard boot ascii scrolling screen I get the 1st dialog screen is the keyboard selection screen. I select my keyboard (us ascii), and press ok. I then get an error screen The Red Hat Linux Rescue CD was not found in any of your cdrom drives. Please insert the Red Hat Linux Rescue CD and press OK to retry using controll alt F3, I see messages: * trying to mount device scd0 * trying to mount device scd1 and if I press OK, I see these messages repeated (once for each attempt). unfortunately there is not a shell available, so I am unable to diagnose further. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. bootable cdrom must be scsi 2. boot Red Hat Rescue cdrom 3. select keybopard and press ok Actual Results: can't find the booted cdrom Expected Results: normal rescue operation Additional info: exact same behaviour with the enigma system survival cdrom (which I only just tried aftyer trying the Valhalla rescue cdrom. :(
