1. Hard Disk Partition Configuration:

Drive C: win7 (NTFs format -- installed)

Disk D: install the software disk in Windows (NTFs format -- not processed)

E-Disk: used to store the rhl6.0es Installation File (FAT32 format -- after the installation is complete, it can be changed to NTFS. Because there are too many other D/F disk materials, I chose an e-disk with less information, you can choose according to the actual situation)

F: Windows File disk (NTFs format -- not processed)

G Disk: (FAT32 format --/root partition storage point, size allocated according to the actual situation of the hard disk, my is 40 Gb)

H Disk: (FAT32 format-4 GB space, used for Linux swap partition)

 

 

2. Set boot, start Rhl-6.0-ES setup

 

2.1. Download rhel-server-6.0-i386-dvd

(Http://www.redhat.com/rhel/server/ official website registered account to enter free evaluation software to download)

 

2.2. format the three partitions as FAT32

 

Note: In Windows 7, partitions cannot be directly formatted as FAT32 using the System Format option.

To begin.

 

The partition operation is as follows:

Step 1: select the partition to be formatted (medium e disk)

 

Step 2: Right-click "format partition"

 

 

Step 3: Select "File System" as FAT32 and click OK.

 

Step 4: format the other disks G and H using the above method, click the "Apply" button on the toolbar, and the system will restart the partition configuration. At this time, do not power off or force shutdown, avoid hard disk partition crash.

 

2.3. Installation File Processing

Step 1: copy the rhel-server-6.0-i386-dvd to the edisk.

Step 2: unzip the rhel-server-6.0-i386-dvd to the E disk.

 

2.4. Set boot

Download easybcd2.1 (: http://download.csdn.net/source/3574286), install and open the software.

 

Step 1: Select Add new entry to add a new guide.

 

Step 2: add the rhel-server-6.0-i386-dvd under the drive you just copied, and click Add entry.

 

After saving, you can view the added guide items (for example) in view settings ):

 

Step 3: exit and restart your computer

 

2.5. Start the boot program

 

Step 1: After the restart, select redhat6.0 install (the name you wrote in the previous step) in the pilot item selection)

 

Step 2: Install RedHat Linux 6.0 es.

 

3. Install RedHat Linux 6.0 es

 

3.1. One of the important steps: Start the installation (move the cursor to redhat6.0 install at startup)

3.2. Step 2: select the image installation type. Select hard drive> hard disk installation.

3.3. Step 3: select the hard disk partition where the ISO file is stored

 

The/dev/sda6 in my file represents the edisk where I stored the RHL 6.0 es ISO image file. You need to select it based on your actual partition, if you do not know, you can use the wingrub software for viewing, or try it one by one in this step (if a disk partition does not have an ISO file installed, an error will be reported, prompting you to change the partition ).

3.4. Step 4: Select User-Defined partitions

3.5. Step 5: allocate root partitions

Select the originally allocated g disk, that is, the sda8 in the figure (you can calculate the size of the allocated g Disk Based on the partition type vfat and partition size 40962 respectively ).

 

Click "edit", select the mount point as/(Root), the format type is ext3, and click OK.

 

 

3.6. Step 6: allocate swap partitions

Select sda9 (H disk of the original FAT32), click "edit", set format type to swap, and click "OK.

 

 

3.7. Step 7: format the root partition and swap Partition

After configuring the root partition and swap partition, click "Next" to enter the formatting interface and click "format" to format them.

 

 

Select "Write changes to disk" to confirm the partition.

3.8. Step 8: restart

After partitioning, skip the steps such as selecting the software to be installed in the system until the page is restarted. After the installation is successful, click "reboot" to restart.

 

 

3.9. Step 9: Start Linux and enter the system.

After the machine is restarted, there will be two boot pilot projects, one is other (win7) and the other is rhl6.0 es. We select the one from rel6.0 to enter the system and the following interface appears, haha, your guidance has been successful, but you still need to enter the system.

 

After entering the following interface, enter the root user name and password and the password will run normally. Now you can cheer for your own efforts. At least your installation has been successful.

 

 

4. Windows 7 and RedHat dual system startup items

* This chapter is optional for those who have successfully installed redhat6.0 es.

 

Many people install RedHat, but win7 cannot be guided. In fact, grub in Linux can be configured. In redhat6.0 Linux es, I found that it has been automatically configured. Maybe it is not implemented in earlier versions, many posts on the Internet say that there are many such questions. I have found a relatively good answer for your reference.

 

4.1. Open the/boot/GRUB/grub. conf file.

Enter the command VI/boot/GRUB/grub. conf and I as the root user to modify the grub. conf configuration file.

Note: This figure is from the jarvischu blog.

 

 

4.2. Add a Windows 7 startup Item

Add a Windows 7 startup item at the end of the file, following the RedHat startup Item of the file.

Suppose window7 is installed on drive C (otherwise root (hd0, n), n is your installation disk)

Note: This chapter is from the jarvischu blog

 

 

4.3. Save and restart your computer

 

5. Small expansion-default boot item and wait time settings

Note: This chapter is from the jarvischu blog

 

After we want to start up, wait for 10 seconds to select a time and enter windows7 by default. The method is as follows:

Open the/boot/GRUB/grub. conf file,

Modify: default = 0

Timeout = 15

Default = 1

Timeout = 10

The value 1 in default = 1 depends on the actual situation. According to the sorting in the grub. conf file, the first startup Item is 0, and the second is 1.
