Reinstalling Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
This section provides information about how to reinstall or customize
your operating system and how to obtain the device drivers you may need.
When reinstalling the operating system, you can restore the operating system
to the default settings or perform a custom installation.
NOTE: Device drivers and documentation that Dell installs on your computer
are available in the Linux folder on the Dell n Series Drivers and Utilities media.
Restoring Default Settings
To enable you to restore your system software to the same state in which you
received it, Dell has created a reinstallation partition on your primary hard
drive. This partition contains images of the installation, additional device
drivers, and the necessary scripts to automate the reinstallation.
NOTICE: The following procedure erases all the existing data from your
computer’s hard drive.
Perform the following steps to reinstall the operating system with the default
settings:
1
Back up any important data on the computer’s hard drive.
2
At the command prompt, type:
sh/usr/src/dell/reinstall.sh
3
Read the warning on the screen and follow the instructions to reboot your
computer. The operating system is reinstalled automatically.
Performing a Custom Installation
NOTICE: The following procedure erases all the existing data from your
computer’s hard drive.
To reinstall the operating system with different options from those originally
installed by Dell, perform the following steps:
1
Back up the
/usr/src/dell
directory and any important data on the
computer's hard drives.
