This fix only seems to work for the boot floppies though, and not the CD image (boot.iso). Has anyone seen a fix for that? I prefer to do the network install with a bootable CD instead of the multiple floppies for a number of reasons.
Here's what I have in my /..../en/os/i386/RedHat/base
-rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 8257380 Mar 13 2003 comps.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 642457 Mar 13 2003 comps.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 9728936 Mar 13 2003 hdlist -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 19066344 Mar 13 2003 hdlist2 -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 10170368 Mar 13 2003 hdstg2.img -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 10502144 Mar 13 2003 netstg2.img -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 64114688 Mar 13 2003 stage2.img -rw-r--r-- 1 redhat users 131072 Sep 11 15:52 updates.img
I see that updates.img file in there, which I'm assuming is the fix, but I still get the "unable to read header list" error when I do the FTP install
I get the "Retrieving /base/netstg2.img" but after the pre-configuration phase during "Reading package information..." I get "Unable to read header list. This may be due to a missing file or bad media. Press <return> to try again."
Is there away to get the FTP install to work using the bootable installer CD (typically located at /home/redhat/9/en/os/i386/images/boot.iso)?
Thanks! Jeff
