Hello all,
Gabriel, I assume that you are writing from two email adresses. Sorry
that it has taken me so long to respond on this. My wife fell and broke
her leg today while we were hiking, so I am a bit distracted.
Earlier, I noted that I had peformed this task, but I realized that my
notes were rather dated (slinky v0.3.6). The machine in question is
named runaway on the website. As soon as things calm down a bit here, I
will haul it out and confirm a step-by-step for the installation via NIC
& with the newer slinky v0.3.97. Gabriel, do you have an ftp, http or
NFS server which can provide the packages? Note that public servers do
exist, and I have gotten that to work before.
BTW, my understanding of the way the slinky installer works is that it
installs specific versions of the RPMs based on the set of RPMs (the
abreviation for RedHat Package Manager packages) on the install CDs.
So, until I or someone else can update the package lists usd by the
installer, it probably is not possible to install FC2 using slinky v0.3.96.
However, it should be possible to use v0.3.96 to install RH9, then
upgrade to FC2. Though I cannot tell you how to do that without some
experimentation.
