Dear Pluggers,
I am leaping headlong into a Linux RH 6.1 setup on a salvaged Pentium =
box and need a little bootstrapping to get up and running.=20
The box has two HDs, Master & Slave, and an IDE CDROM. Auto Gnome =
workstation install works fine (I guess), except that it does not mount =
or partition hdb. It only deals with hda.=20
I need the disk space on the slave drive (the drives are only 1GB each) =
I tried manual partitioning to set up a /boot and / on hda, and /usr to =
on hdb in addition to the swap. If I do this, X-windows crashes on =
startx with an X-Font server installation failure and additional =
messages that tell me it doesn't know where to find the font files it =
needs to set up the X-windows environment. I presume those files are in =
/usr, meaning the partition and/or mount scheme didn't work.=20
Any advice...
