DIRECTORY ORGANIZATION

Red Hat Linux is delivered on two CDROMs (disc 1 and disc 2). Disc 1 can
be directly booted into the installation on most modern PCs, and contains
the following directory structure:

/mnt/redhat
  |----> RedHat
  |        |----> RPMS         -- binary packages
  |        `----> base         -- information on this release of Red Hat
  |                               Linux used by the installation process
  |----> ppc
  |        `----> chrp         -- pSeries boot images
  |
  |----> etc
  |        `----> yaboot.conf  -- bootloader configuration file
  |
  |----> COPYING               -- copyright information
  |----> 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


The directory layout of disc 2 is as follows:

/mnt/redhat
  |----> RedHat
  |        `----> RPMS         -- additional binary packages
  |----> SRPMS                 -- source packages (more are on the dedicated
  |                               SRPMS CD)
  |----> COPYING               -- copyright information
  |----> 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

If you are setting up an image for NFS, FTP, or HTTP installations, you
need to get everything from the RedHat directory from both CDs. On Linux
and Unix, the following process will properly set up the /target/directory
on your server for installing Red Hat.

    1) Insert disc 1
    2) mount /mnt/cdrom
    3) cp -a /mnt/cdrom/RedHat /target/directory
    4) umount /mnt/cdrom
    5) Replace disc 1 with disc 2
    6) mount /mnt/cdrom
    7) cp -a /mnt/cdrom/RedHat /target/directory
    8) umount /mnt/cdrom

============================================================================
INSTALLING

If you have a CDROM and it is properly configured, you can boot the Red Hat
Linux CDROM directly without using any boot disk. After booting, you'll be
able to install your system from the CDROM. Note that booting from a CDROM
is equivalent to booting the ppc/bootinfo.txt file on a pSeries machine.

============================================================================
UPGRADING 

When running an upgrade on a machine which contains Red Hat's 32-bit 
kernel, you will need to set the machine's hardware clock manually 
when the System Boot Configuration screen appears. To set the hardware 
clock, follow these steps:

    - switch to the interactive shell terminal by pressing <ctl>+<alt>+<f2>

    - execute the command

	chroot /mnt/sysimage

    - set the hardware clock using the command

	/usr/sbin/hwclock --set --date="9/22/1996 16:45:05"

	using the correct date, of course.

    - set the system clock using the command

	/usr/sbin/hwclock --hctosys 

    - execute the command

	exit 0

    - return to the installer by pressing <ctl>+<alt>+<F7>

JAPANESE LANGUAGE INSTALLS

Japanese language installations can only be performed in GUI mode. 

If the install is performed using media other than CDROM, the installation 
program will start initially in text (TUI) mode, which is incapable of 
displaying multibyte characters. If you choose to use installation media 
other than CDROM, you will have to select language and installation 
media/source in the English language. Once the installation media has been 
located, provided you have selected an install method that supports 
graphical installation (CDROM or NFS only), the installer will start in 
GUI mode using the Japanese character set and keyboard map on the display 
you specified.
