I have downloaded the following file
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/Release-1.2/installer/forRH8.0-SGI-
XFS-1.2.0.iso
Twice, burned two separate CD's, verified the media and have tried to run
an upgrade to an existing Redhat 7.3 with XFS 1.1 on a Tyan Thunder K7
Athlon 1.4Ghz system . I used this same mechanism when upgrading these same
systems from 7.1 and it worked like a charm (Thanks!)
Both times the installation attempt has failed with an error leading me to
believe that the following file might be corrupt on that iso image:
kernel-2.4.18-18SGI_XFS-1.2.0
Could someone verify that they have successfully upgraded a Redhat 7.3
Athlon system with that iso disk? (I tried finding an external list but
the one on the XFS page at SGI is a dead link)
At this point I am going to proceed by backing out XFS from that existing
7.3 install, upgrading to 8.0 and then trying the following Redhat RPM's.
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/Release-1.2/kernel_rpms/2.4.18-18-
RH/
Should I anticipate that the RPM would have the same issue?
Thank you for any assistance.
