Red Hat Linux is delivered on five CDROMs (disc 1 through disc
5). Disc 1 can be directly booted into the installation on most modern
systems, and contains the following directory structure (where
/mnt/cdrom is the mount point of the CD-ROM):

/mnt/cdrom
  |----> RedHat
  |        |----> RPMS         -- binary packages
  |        `----> base         -- information on this release of Red Hat
  |                               Linux used by the installation process
  |----> images                -- boot and ramdisk images
  |----> dosutils              -- installation utilities for DOS
  |----> README                -- this file
  |----> RELEASE-NOTES         -- the latest information about this release
  |                               of Red Hat Linux
  `----> RPM-GPG-KEY           -- GPG signature for packages from Red Hat

Disc 2 is similar to disc 1, except that only the RedHat subdirectory is
present.

Disc 3 contains binary and source packages. The layout of disc 3 is as
follows:

/mnt/cdrom
  |----> RedHat
  |        `----> RPMS         -- binary packages
  |
  |----> SRPMS                 -- source packages
  |
  |
  `----> RPM-GPG-KEY           -- GPG signature for packages from Red Hat

The directory layout of discs 4 and 5 is as follows:

/mnt/cdrom
  |----> SRPMS                 -- source packages
  `----> RPM-GPG-KEY           -- GPG signature for packages from Red Hat

If you are setting up an installation tree for NFS, FTP, or HTTP
installations, you need to copy the RELEASE-NOTES files and all files
from the RedHat directory on discs 1-3. On Linux and Unix systems, the
following process will properly configure the /target/directory on
your server (repeat for each disc):

    1) Insert disc
    2) mount /mnt/cdrom
    3) cp -a /mnt/cdrom/RedHat /target/directory
    4) cp /mnt/cdrom/RELEASE-NOTES* /target/directory
    5) umount /mnt/cdrom


Red Hat Linux is also available on a bootable DVD-ROM for compatible
systems. The DVD-ROM contains all installation files and binaries (the
contents of CD-ROM discs 1, 2, and 3) as well as source RPMS (discs 4
and 5) and has the following directory structure (where /mnt/cdrom is
the mount point of the DVD-ROM):

/mnt/cdrom
  |----> RedHat
  |        |----> RPMS         -- binary packages
  |        `----> base         -- information on this release of Red Hat
  |                               Linux used by the installation process
  |----> SRPMS                 -- source packages
  |----> images                -- boot and ramdisk images
  |----> dosutils              -- installation utilities for DOS
  |----> README                -- this file
  |----> RELEASE-NOTES         -- the latest information about this release
  |                               of Red Hat Linux
  `----> RPM-GPG-KEY           -- GPG signature for packages from Red Hat
