Hello,
I've got a laptop that i want to install Redhat8 on. I've got to use a
serial terminal for said install and unfortunately the machine only has
USB ports. I have two options, PCMCIA2serial or USB2serial converter.
What i need to do is make a custom rh8 boot disk, floppy i'd presume, so
that one of the two above devices works. The USB2serial converter is a
Belkin f5u103 and the PCMCIA2serial converter which i have on tempoary
loan is a Socket Communications model. After i make the custom bootdisk,
which i have heard might require a 2.5 custom kernel, i'd like to make my
own distribution, where i install only the packages i want, and not
anything extra. Any pointers?
Thanks.
Dave.
