I'm trying to install potato to a new machine to be used as a squid box. (I know potato is beta/frozen). I'm having the following issues:
1) during the install, after the first reboot, I'm getting an error with init. Specifically, the install process puts a line in inittab that says to respawn /root/.bash_profile (or was it rc, I forget, I'm home now) at run level 1. The file doesn't exist so the respawn gets cranky. Who is supposed to put down this file? I've tried touching the file and/or commenting out the line (using another virtual console). Anyone know what is supposed to be the contents of this file or why I'm not getting it? 2) I'm not getting the dselect section that lets me select "workstation" or "server" or ... I'm trying to be lazy and just select server but I'm not getting this dialog. Where does this dialog come from? Is this supposed to be what's in /root/.bash_profile? 3) I have 1 SCSI drive and 4 ide drives and the lilo docs are unclear as to how to set up /etc/lilo.conf for this arrangement so that I can boot from the scsi drive and use the 4 ide drives for raiding for the cache. I've tried what the docs imply: disk=/dev/sda bios=0x80 disk=/dev/hda bios=0x81 (I've also tried 0x30, which is what lilo -v -v -v tells me) but I'm still dying at "LI". According to the manual for lilo, this is a geometry mismatch, lilo can't find the data it needs, it's getting confused by the multiple hard drives. thanks. -- kc Kevin Conover: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
