Installation Tips
1.
Since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 cannot recognize the onboard SATA
RAID, you need to make a driver diskette from the EasyBUILD 8.0 build
100 (or later) first before the installation.
2.
Type linux dd when the prompt boot: appears at the start.
3.
Please select the sda as the Driver Disk Source.
4.
Follow the instruction to load the onboard SATA RAID driver from the
driver diskette.
5.
At the Package Installation Defaults, select Customize software packages
to be installed.
6.
At the Package Group Selection step, select Graphic Internet under
Applications.
7.
If you have installed the ATI FireGL V5200 in the system, please also select
Development Tools and under Development. If you don’t have ATI FireGL
V5200, please go to next step directly
8.
After adding the additional packages, follow the normal procedure to
finish the installation.
