I'm haveing problems getting rhel3 installed. I am able to boot rhel3 from vm and watch the console messages go by. I am able to log into a session using putty. I am doing an ftp install. I get the welcome screen for RHEL AS (the install is using anaconda). Next screen is a warning about this being a beta and I proceed on. Next screen, I set up my ftp connection and that works because 3 files get loaded. Then the next screen displays an error because anaconda or something cannot find my linux disk drives. I know they are there because I can see the sensing activity in the console file. Below is at the end of the dasd sensing:
Partition check: dasdb:CMS1/ LIN201(MDSK): dasdb1 dasdc:CMS1/ LIN202(MDSK): dasdc1 dasdd:CMS1/ LIN203(MDSK): dasdd1 dasde:CMS1/ LIN204(MDSK): dasde1 dasdf:CMS1/ LIN205(MDSK): dasdf1 dasdg:CMS1/ LIN206(MDSK): dasdg1 I'm pretty sure I followed the install instructions to the letter for the dasd. a) format the dasd--> format 201 b (blksize 4096 when that completes b) reserve the dasd--> reserve lin201 mdisk b I also tried the install without reserveing the dasd. Obviously it didn't work. It's like I'm missing a step in here somewhere but I don't know what. As a foot note to all of this, I did have it running, but needed to make one disk larger. When I did that, that particular disk changed to CMS1 All others were VOL1. I figured I really messed something up, so I reformated all of the dasd. It went from bad to worse. 8-( Any help greatly appreciated.
