They also have this proprietary driver for RedHat 8.0, which of course I can't find on Redhat's ftp server and neither does LinuxISO.org have them. If anyone can point me to a source for RedHat 8.0 ISOs, or have another suggestion, I would greatly appreciate it. I find it highly ironic that it looks like it would be cheaper to use Solaris than Linux.. sigh.
I don't understand. You can't find RH8 ISOs or you can't find the proprietary RH8 driver for Compaq?
The RH ISOs, which I now have a source for thanks to Andrew.
And what was wrong with any one of the 100+ official Redhat mirrors listed here?
http://www.redhat.com/download/mirror.html
Version 8.0 (the only somewhat recent non-enterprise version Compaq supports) was not available on Redhat's ftp site.
Funny how its there now: ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/8.0
I assumed that as per usual, "mirrors" are supposed to be just that - copies of a parent site. I thus assumed that they would not have material that Redhat's site doesn't have.
It would be understandable (and common) for Redhat to strongly discourage mirror sites making available for download older releases which contained software with since-fixed security vulnerabilities, as just one example. Thus I didn't bother looking at any of the "mirror" sites.
I honestly don't know what you're talking about:
ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/redhat/redhat/linux/8.0 ftp://mirror.phy.bnl.gov/pub/redhat-pub/redhat/linux/8.0 ftp://linux.nssl.noaa.gov/pub/linux/redhat/linux/8.0
And that's just the first 3 that i checked.
