I am the guy :)

Maybe i was too harash with the 'release announctment', but i don't
want to get email asking 'how do i install'. I have better use for my
time.

You just point the hercules to ipl /generic.ins and of you go.

Maybe some tuning for the paths as it's relative to CD-root

The ctc will hang (it's resetted and upstream problem). for quick (as i
do it when i do install to hercules) keep the line

.ifconfig ctc0 down ; ifconfig ctc0 up ; route add default gw <GWIP>

handy when selectting the installation method. I usually have to paste
that twice to get it connected and if you do that in about 10-15 secs,
you don't loose you session (telnet/ssh) to the box.

Rest is that it's RHEL3-clone, so all the docs for RHEL3 does apply.

PS. Just finnised compiling the updates, so it's pretty much up to date
once again. Used mostly hercules, but cheated a bit by compiling two
packages on 'real iron'. Distcc is your friend with hercules :).

keyword for updates is program 'yum' and /etc/yum.conf .....
