Re: Redhat9 XFS ISO problem.

["Michael Steinhart" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you, this appears to be the problem.

The .discinfo file on the RedHat CD is dated 02/27/2003  5:20 PM:

1046386286.563933

Red Hat Linux 9

i386

1

RedHat/base

RedHat/RPMS

RedHat/pixmaps

I found in the MAKEFILE the entry for CDVER:

CDVERS          = "1047611055.799229\nRed Hat Linux 9\ni386\n4\nRedHat/base\nRedHat/RPMS\nRedHat/pixmaps\n"

I would like to create a new ISO image with the correct version ID.

Any tips on how to accomplish this.

Mike
