I want to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) on my Acer laptop? Is this possible? I looked on the compatibility list but it seems that I can only install this OS on a server machine? Is that true?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install gcc from source, but wish to install to an alternative location, ie /opt/gcc/4.4.4.
I have done so but ran into the problem that the system libs in /usr/lib64 were being located before my libs in /opt/gcc/4.4.4/lib64.
So, I set --libdir=/usr/lib and reinstalled. The libs link in correctly, but now g++ cant find includes, for instance <complex>. I think I could set CPATH to point to the locations of these includes but that doesn't seem like it should be necessary.
So my question is, what is the correct way to install gcc alongside the system versions while allowing linkage to the right libs and location of the includes? I don't want to use prefixes or suffixes because the intel compiler looks at gcc -v to get clues as to how to compile stuff.
It should be noted that I have no internet connectivity on this machine, so building from source is my only option.

I also have a 3.5" usb floppy disk plugged in with the SCSI drivers When I boot the RHEL 5.5 x86 32 bit installer, i type in "linux dd" at the first screen. Then it asks me to load my drivers via the floppy disk which i do. When i get to the installation page of Linux after entering my serial key, it is not able to detect my HDD so i am unable to proceed. I have tried using drivers for RHEL 5, 5.1 and 5.2. There are no drivers for 5.5.

I have only ever used linux side by side with windows so i have never needed to do a reformat in a linux environment.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an Acer Laptop and I am trying to use Linux Redhat 5 on it but for some reason the NIC is not detected by Linux. It is a bit surprising to me that the same problem was seen in my desktop computer but after changing the NIC to a different slot the Linux OS detected the NIC and it is working fine but my laptop still has the same problem.
From troubleshooting point of view:
1. Installed Linux multiple times but it didn't work.
2. Tried to add the hardware (NIC) but it didn't work.
Note: The NIC was working fine when I first installed Linux but after sometime it didn't. The laptop is dual boot (Windows & Linux) when I boot via windows the NIC works fine but not with Linux.
NIC Details:
Device Type: Network Adapter
Manufacturer: Broadcom
Location: PCI bus 2, device 0, function 0

trying to install Veritas Storage Foundation HA on RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.(64 bit)OS was fresh installed (haven't updated anything yet). I tried to start the VSF installer as stated in the documentations. Change directory to cdrom and where the files are located and typed ". ./installer" It is supposed to launch the installer but instead, the terminal window closed itself. I think I'm missing something here. Don't think it's the media problem. Either I run it from window by double-clicking or run from terminal window, it closes and nothing happens.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have RHEL 5.2, with Boost 1.33 installed. I downloaded boost_1_44_0.tar.bz2. and built it. On completion it showed:
Code:
The Boost C++ Libraries were successfully built!
The following directory should be added to compiler include paths:
/home/dfe/Archive/boost_1_44_0
The following directory should be added to linker library paths:
/home/dfe/Archive/boost_1_44_0/stage/lib
I have been able to compile programs using CC -I/home/dfe/Archive/boost_1_44_0 -L/home/dfe/Archive/boost_1_44_0/stage/lib yourprogram.cpp
but...it's annoying that I have to add these paths for every program that I compile. Isn't there any way to make version 1.44 the default version (so that I won't have to include these paths when I compile)?
1. When I do "rpm -q boost", it shows boost-1.33.1-10.el5. Why is that so, when I've installed version 1.44? Did I have to remove the existing rpm before building the new version of boost?
2. Is there a better way to install the latest version of Boost?
I have a Dell Precison 690 system in my lab. I want to downgrade the system from RHEL 5 to RHEL $ since some of my software is not working in RHEL 5. I have the installation CD and the dell driver CD. There are 2 cd drives in the system and I am using both the CDS at the same time. But when the installation asks to select hda or hdb to get the driver cd. I put the CD in the second cd dirve which is connected to hdb. When I select hdb it is not recognizing the cd. When I skip the driver selection step I am getting the error:"No valid device were found on which to create new file"I have used the following and nothing worked:

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using RHEL 5.4 Here is my requirement.
- The ultimate aim is to install LAMP using yum.
- The Apache Spec (httpd.spec) is customized, like the location of the apache installation is /usr/local/apache2 rather than /usr. So I need to compile apache source code using this customized apache spec.
- I need to then install this apache using YUM.
So my understanding is I need to compile apache , then add into yum repository or something like that, so that yum can be used to install apache.
