I just tried this here, and it works fine. Here is what I did:
# mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
# insmod /mnt/floppy/modules/kernel/drivers/tulip/tulip.o
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.7 netmask 255.255.255.0
(ifconfig should now show that the interface is up)
That all worked for me, but I used ne.o and added the correct
arguements/parameters. ifconfig did show everything as up and running.
# route add default gw 192.168.0.3
That didn't work for me. I had to do this:
#route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.255 dev eth0
#route add default gw 192.168.2.0

The installer tries to create /newroot/etc/mtab and /newroot/etc/fstab.
neither is copied anywhere, so I'm not sure what the problem might be.
If the file creation is failing, then there is a problem with mounting
the partitions. I've no idea about /etc/passwd and /etc/network, neither
is included in the scripts.
My mistake. They are /etc/sysconfig/network and /usr/bin/passwd. The error
messages are, "/etc/sysconfig/network: cannot create (No such file or
directory)", and "/usr/bin/passwd: not found'\n'here file /tmp/shtm325000:
cannot open (No such file or directory)'\n'syntax error". I hope that makes
sense.
I'd _really_ like to see the log from this install.
There isn't one. /scripts only contains initial_reboot.sh and setup.sh.
I'm guessing that you aren't connecting.
As a note, you'd do well to use another server. Red Hat's server is
usually pretty busy. Try to find a local mirror.
I tried on to find one, but I couldn't. I think they took down the mirror
page.
Sincerely, and with thanks,
Eugene T.S. Wong
