<DIV><FONT size=2>Hi all!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I am having a problem with the redhat installation/upgrade
program. I have downloaded the iso image for redhat 6.2 for an i386, and
copied the files from the image to /home/redhat.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Next, I downloaded the rh 6.2 boot disks from the speakup site
and created a boot disk so that I can do an upgrade from the hard
disk.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I created the boot disk by issuing the following
command.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>dd if=dtlkb.bin of=/dev/fd0</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I reboot from the floppy I created, and the system starts
talking fine, so I know that is not the issue. After I select the language
and keyboard type, the system wants me to select where the installation files
are. I select "hard drive", then tell it where the files are by selecting
/dev/hda7 (my /home partition), then I also fill in the "directory holding
redhat" field with "/redhat".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The system starts to load the 2nd stage ram disk, then gives
the following messages:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>error 2 reading header: Success</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>cpio failed on (null): (internal)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>install exited abnormally -- received signal 11</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Then all processes are stopped, filesystems are unmounted and
I am told to reboot my system. What is going on? Can anyone help
with this?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Thanks,</FONT></DIV>
