Advisory: RHEA-2004:518-06
Type: Product Enhancement Advisory
Severity: N/A
Issued on: 2004-12-21
Last updated on: 2004-12-21
Affected Products: Red Hat Desktop (v. 3)

Details

Updated anaconda and pump packages that fix various issues related to
installation on new hardware are now available.

The anaconda package contains portions of the Red Hat Linux installation
program which can be run by the user for reconfiguration and advanced
installation options.

The pump-devel package provides system developers the ability to send BOOTP
and DHCP requests from their programs. BOOTP and DHCP are protocols used to
provide network configuration information to networked machines.

The following issues have been addressed:

- Enhances link detection when gigabit ethernet adapters are used.
- Adds support for installation on additional hardware.
- Adds support for using the hardware address of the network device to be
specified during a kickstart installation, in addition to the name
assigned by the kernel.

All users of these various packages should upgrade, which resolve these issues.
