Back I am trying to install RedHat 7.3 on a Render Box (Boxx Series 8104) and have an interesting install problem. I am using the following for installation and i keep getting anaconda probing the hardware even after expressly telling it NOT to using the following: -- linux text dd noprobe -- It starts a text install, requests and reads my driver disk required for the Adaptect Ultra 320 SCSI subsystem which this OS does NOT support, and then moves on throwing the following exception and bombing out of the install: Running anaconda .. please wait Probing for video card: Traceback (innermost last) File="/usr/lib/anaconda", line 383 in ? videohw = videocard.VideoCardInfo(skipDDCProbe = flags.test File="/usr/lib/anacondavideocard.py", line 416 in __init__ if self.readCardsDB() < 0: File="/usr/lib/anacondavideocard.py", line 436 in readCardsDB refcard = Video_cardslist[seecard] KeyError: RIVA TNT2 install exited abnormally I realize this is antiquated software, but i am in need of running Macromedia Flash Communication Server (v1.5) and it runs on Redhat 7.3 and 8.0 but since our farm is 95% RHL73 that was the OS of choice. I personally would prefer to run this with Fedora Core 2 as the OS, but Macromedia doesnt support this configuration as of yet. MIchael Weiner <http://www.americangreetings.com/> ...
