We're still stuck with SL3 because of app support.
More and more we're needing drivers that aren't
there by default. But a driver diskette is no
longer an option, partly because of size, but
mostly because some of the compute farm systems
don't have room for a floppy (and the USB drivers
aren't there).
I haven't been able to find anything definitive,
so I'm asking here.
1) What does a driver CDROM looks like? I'm
hoping it's just like a driver diskette in
terms of what goes on the FS.
2) Can I just put that stuff on my KS boot
CDROM and use the same CDROM as a KS boot
CDROM and a driver CDROM?
3) I'm assuming the only other way to make
drivers available is by rebuilding the kernel
that goes on the KS CDROM. Or can I just add
them as I would in a live FS, under something
like /lib/modules/2.4.21-27.0.2.EL/kernel/drivers/net/ ?
If there's a web site that covers this, please
point me to it!
Thanks,
Miles
