RedHat Enterprise AS4 Hard Drive installation steps

In fact, there are already a lot of online redhat Enterprise AS4 hard disk installation methods, I do not know that I did not understand the essentials or other aspects of the reasons, have not succeeded. It may be of some use to you to post my methods here. Don't say you are rookie, is that you are rookie of the best, according to the following methods, can also be installed successfully.

(1). Download the CD-ROM image file (the extension is ISO), a total of four files. The following URL downloads quickly:

ftp://ftp.workman.cn/iso/

(2). Prepare disk partitions for Redhat. Mount partition above 4G, swap partition is twice times inside of you, 512M is OK.

By the way, because I previously installed the Windows XP SP2, the hard drive was divided into four zones, and the disk partitions had to be readjusted. Partition magician (I use the Chinese version of PQMagic8.0) to adjust the hard disk partition, it will not damage the hard disk data, its specific use of the method I do not say here, do not understand to Google, the Internet has a very detailed method of operation.

(3). To download the grub for DOS, download grub.exe to the URL below:

ftp://ftp.cosoft.org.cn/incoming/

(4). Extract all the files in the Isolinux directory in the first CD-ROM image file (rhel4-i386-as-disc1-jrt.iso). You can use WinRAR. I unpacked them into the F:\isolinux directory.

(5). Reboot system to DOS, with Win98,winme boot disk, can boot to DOS Windows installation CD-ROM of course it is also OK.

(6). Execute grub at the DOS prompt, which is the grub.exe you just downloaded, and the system prompt changes to grub>. Can break into command help see.

(7). Enter one of the following commands:

Root (Hda0,x)

Here x refers to the Isolinux directory where you unzipped the hard disk partition of a number, you will not download to C disk, 5 for C disk, 6 for D disk, 7 for e disk, and so on. Enter root (hda0, and then click the TAB key, will list all the hard disk partitions, you count backwards from the front.) What does this order mean? After you install Linux, learn slowly.

(8). Enter a command to install the Linux kernel:

Kernel/yourpath/vmlinuz

Description Two: One is to use a backslash, do not write wrong; the second is that you just unzipped the first CD-ROM image of those files stored path, do not enter the letter, the root command has been transferred to the current disk Yourpath. such as Kernel/isolinux/vmlinux.

(9). Mount the Redhat installation file and enter a command:

Initrd/youpath/initrd.img

Description two point: slightly. What two points are you talking about? Read the first step (8) carefully!

(10). Start the installation and enter a command:

Boot

You don't forget to return to the car for every command you enter? The lovely Redhat began to be installed. Why are you stopping? Waiting for your choice, don't make a mistake, I have to say a few words.

(11). Choose to install from the hard disk, e-text interface, you should read it. Then select the disk partition of your disc image file, Hda5 is C, Hda6 is D, and so on. Also enter the path to your ISO file. My four ISO files are placed in the F:\redhat directory, select Hda8, enter the path is/redhat/. Note that at two points see step (8).

Click Next, choose the default language Chinese, the remaining installation interface is Chinese, and other Linux installation method is the same, do not understand to go online search, I will not say more. Still don't understand, ask me ha.
