ICH9

Hi,
I'm preparing Centos 5 with backported ICH9 patches. I've
built kernels,
made iso and everything seems ok. Now I want the iso to
include patched
vmlinuz during the boot time, in isolinux folder. Once
replaced CD boots
fine too, but finally complains about wrong CD and asks to
insert insert
CentOS CD. There's something I have to change and I do not
know what.
Any hints?
Thanks,
David

There is a timestamp that is used to determine if something
is part of
the original release.

That file is named .discinfo on all the CDs and must be in
the root
directory.  If you look at a CentOS CD or DVD, you will see
it.

It corresponds to a file named .buildstamp that must be in
the initrd.img.

Those 2 files must contain the same timestamp ... in the
case of
CentOS-5 as released by us ... it is:

200704101950.i386
(that is the number for i386)

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

Thanks Johnny,
that I now yet. Now I'm trying to find out how to create
suitable
initrd.img for install media. The one created with mkinitrd
or
new-kernel-pkg does not work. I has half the size.
Thanks,
David
