RedHawk Linux Version 5.4 Release Notes 33
5.1.2 Installing Red Hat Updates
Install the disc labeled RHEL 5.4 Updates. This contains the latest updates released by Red Hat
which have been validated by Concurrent on RedHawk Linux. These updates are important to
the proper operation of RedHawk Linux.
Execute the following instructions on the console or in a terminal window running as root.
1. Log in as root and take the system down to single-user mode:
a. If in GUI mode, right click on the desktop and select Open Terminal.
b. At the system prompt, type init 1.
2. If the optical media did not mount automatically, execute the mount
command appropriate for mounting your optical device.
NOTES
NOTE 1: A specific mount point may not have been created under /mnt or
/media.
If not, you can often identify the device file associated with your optical
media device by looking for files matching the following patterns:
ls /dev/cd* /dev/dvd*
If these files are not present, you should examine the boot messages in
/var/log/messages and look for your optical media device and
find the associated /dev file.
Once located, you can mount the device with commands similar to the
following:
[ -d /media/dvd ] || mkdir -p /media/dvd
mount device-name /media/dvd -o ro
where device-name is the /dev/ file you located.
NOTE 2: On systems with multiple optical media drives, you may need to
manually create separate mount points for each drive under /media
and include explicit mount instructions in /etc/fstab for each
device. For example, on a system with a reader and a writer, you may
need to manually create these mount points:
/media/dvd
/media/dvdrw
and include the following in /etc/fstab:
/dev/hda /media/dvd auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/dvdrw auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
3. Execute the following commands to install the update software,
substituting the actual mount point used for your optical media disc device
for /media/dvd, if necessary:
cd /media/dvd
./install-updates
Package installation and update begins automatically. No action is required of you
during this step.
