Hey guys: I just installed the OSCAR nightly tarball on CentOS 4, and it worked like a charm. I believe this should work for ALL RHEL4 clones - Props goes to David Isaacson for coming up with the idea.
I'm going to outline the steps I took for CentOS 4 install: 1) Install CentOS 4 on headnode 2) Choose workstation install 3) After installation complete, copy all the RPMs from all *4* CDs to /tftpboot/rpm 4) Download redhat-release SRPM from Red Hat's ftp server ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/4/en/os/i386/SRPMS/redh at-release-4AS-2.src.rpm 5) Rebuild it by issuing 'rpmbuild --rebuild redhat-release-4AS-2.src.rpm' 6) rpm -Uvh redhat-release-4AS-2.i386.rpm --force 7) Copy redhat-release-4AS-2.i386.rpm to /tftpboot/rpm ... continue with regular OSCAR installation. This however, will throw off yum when doing updates...
