   =09the standard kernel.  Note that the installer does NOT know
   =09how to enable the 3945 wireless.   You will have to add the
   =09starting of the /sbin/ipw3945d in your startup scripts.
  =09This driver is known to work on the Dell 820 and Dell 620.

ndiswrapper

     with Linux by means of a loadable kernel module that "wraps
     around" NDIS (Windows network driver API) drivers.  These rpms c=

     just the kernel module and loader. You will also need the Window=
s driver
     for your card.

    WARNING: Scientific Linux-Kernels use 4K size stack. Many Windows=
 drivers
    will need at least 8K size stacks. For details read the wiki on:

  =09NOTE1: Just because a yum repository exists does NOT mean
  =09it is compatible with all other yum repositories.  We have inclu=
ded
  =09the repositories we did because they usually work well together.=
  But if
  =09there is a problem with one of the packages in a repository, ple=
ase
         contact that repository maintainer.

  =09yum-autoupdate

    =09yum-autoupdate has the check for a running yum in it, so that =
if
    =09yum has been running for a long time (close to 24 hours), when=
 the
 =09yum.cron starts up, it will kill the old yum.  This was changed
         because we had reports that yum was hanging and we didn't wa=
nt this
  =09to interfere with updates.

    =09yum-autoupdate checks to see how long the machine is been up
    =09If it is up less than 20 hours, it doesn't wait, but does the =
update.
  =09If it is longer than 20 hours, it waits a random time, up to 3 h=
ours.
    =09This uptime check was done to help laptops and other machines =
that
    =09might not be on long enough to wait for the random time.
  =09The random time was put it in so that servers arn't overwhelmed.

   =09yum-conf-5x was created for those users who want to be at the l=
atest
   =09stable release.  It is always pointing at the 5x area.  This me=
ans
   =09that when we make new versions you will automatically be upgrad=
ed to
   =09them.

Changed in order to be built

 =09Some rpm's had to be changed in order for us to build them.

 =09The following rpm's had to have a variable changed so that they
 =09point to the current include file

The Upstream Vendor's release consists of 2 cd sets,  Server and Clie=
nt.  Each=20
cd set has a group of directories which contain the actual rpms.  On =
the Client=20
cd this consists of Client,Workstation and VT.  On the Server cd this=
 consists
of Server,VT,Cluster, ClusterStorage.  The VT directory contains the =
same rpms=20
on each cd.  The Cluster, ClusterStorage and Workstation directories =
do not=20
have any common rpms. The Client and Server directories contain many =
common=20
rpms along with many unique rpms.

Scientific Linux has combined all of the rpm's from Client, Server, V=
T, Cluster,
ClusterStorage, and Workstation into the SL directory.
You are not asked to enter any key, since you have access to all pack=
ages.

ftp install
 =09Currently, during an ftp install when it get's the the graphical
 =09section, there is a long pause (close to a minute) when it sits
 =09at a blank screen.  It is NOT frozen,  it is just searching for
 =09files that are not there.  Give it a couple minutes and it
 =09will continue.  This will be fixed before the final release.
