Chapter 2 Installing Linux in a Server Configuration Critical Skill Perform pre-installation evaluation Install Red Hat Linux 2.1 Performing Pre-installation Evaluation Hardware configuration Hardware support site for Linux: for HCL( Hardware compatibility List ) Intel-based configurations work fine Avoid cutting-edge hardware and software configurations Server Design Stability, availability and performance are basic requirements Administration is important for a server (no friendly GUI) Keep server in physical safety Some specific thing to improve sever situation Avoid using x-windows system Disable some unused functions Pick and choose features in the kernel 2.1 Install Red Hat Linux Four ways to install Linux Red Hat CD-ROM Download（ISO）file ftp://ftp.RedH/pub/Red Hat/linux/9/en/iso/i386 Install through network Install on Visual machine Hardware requirement for installing Linux CPU: Intel 386、486、Celeron、Pentium family memory： Text model：64MB graphic：128MB Hard disk： 20G up IDE：read and write slowly but cheaper SCSI： read and write fast but expensive Network：network card（token ring、FDDI fiber、ethernet）modem Linux partition Primary partition ：at most 4 primary partitions, one of them can be an extended partition(最多4个主分区) Extended partition：only one extended partition, but can contain more than one logical partitions（只有一个扩展分区，可包含多个逻辑分区） Logical partition：more than one / , swap, /boot, /usr Linux vs. Windows partition Note: Serial number 1～4 remains for primary partition and extended partition. Serial number for logical partition begins from 5 Suitable disk partition size / : 1G swap: two times of memory (内存的二倍) /boot: 100M /usr: 2G /home: 100M /var: 256M /tmp: 100M At least, / and swap partition are needed Install the Boot loader (配置引导安装程序) Linux support dual-booting (支持多重引导) Boot program is either GRUB or LILO Install on MBR or first partition on which Linux resides (可安装在主引导记录或安装Linux的第一个分区上) Red Hat recommends GRUB dual-booting “fdisk” for checking
