Hi,
I tried installing Linux over an external HDD. First I tried with
Fedora core 2 and its diskdruid didnt support the USB HDD. Then I used
RH 8.0, with its fdisk, I was able to partition the HDD and write the
bootloader(GRUB) into the MBR of the same external HDD. It was booting
perfectly also.
Dennis,
I recently had this problem come up also. The 2.6 kernel supports partitions made
with other operating systems now. The way I fixed this was by going into the
Partitions section of the kernel config and enabling all the different partition
types. I imagine that deselecting the partit

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade from glib-1.2.10-8 to

The problem is that while installing the RPM, i get

needs glibc-common 2.3.2. When I try to install
glibc-common 2.3.3, it conflicts with an earlier
version. Removing that ea

My old scsi cdrom will not boot. I'm installing from my windows hard

Oh. From what you sent this time, it does look like the NIC is being
detected, but RH cannot assign an IP address to the interface. I'm not
entirely sure of this, though, based on the details of what you quote, namely:
