Hi,
Hey how could i make a bootnet.img for redhat 9 ?? there is no "bootnet.img" at images dir !!
I tried from preparing the bootnet.img of redhat 8 , but it failed saying that "The Second stage of install which you have selected does not match the boot disk your using..."
I prepared the 'bootnet.img' from redhat-8 CD like this:
# dd if=/mnt/cdrom/images/bootnet.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k count=1
I believe this is correct !!
-Dilip
from /mnt/cdrom/images/README:
The following boot image:
bootdisk.img - primary boot image for _all_ install methods
is to be used for all install methods. A secondary driver disk will be required for most install types other than IDE CDROM and HD based installs.
The following driver disks are available:
drvblock.img - Supplemental Block Device Drivers drvnet.img - Supplemental Network Drivers pcmciadd.img - PCMCIA Driver Diskette
