Dan, there are a number of things I found out in the installation that I
am
have half kept track of you will need to know.
1 - The kernel update files on the RedHat site were an older version than
I
had on the CD. To get the realtime patch to install all I needed to do
was
load ALL the kernel rpm modules (headers, library, source) that were on
the
5.2 CD.
This is good to know as the kernel_source RPM is like a 10MB download.
In step 2 where you issue the patch command his instructions show a
hyphen
where it should be an underscore. The proper command is: patch -p1 <
../kernel_patch
In step 3 again a hyphen is shown. Do: make modules_install
Sorry, I OCRed this part from a Xerox that my dog chewed on.
In step 4 you may want to put in a way to boot to the old kernel just
incase.
This is also a very good idea and I'm going to update the EMC installation
instructions with your corrections and changes ASAP!
The only other thing I know to watch out for is to use the memory values
from Matt's last list for updating the 64stepper.ini and run.64step378
file
values.
Ditto the above.
