Hi,
I'm attempting to rebuild CentOS 2.1 ISOs with the latest kernel (to attempt installation on some newer hardware with SATA drives).
It seems that the original build environment used different version of anaconda than shipped with CentOS 2.1 (7.2-77_ELAS vs 7.2.32AS). I found SRPM of 7.2.32AS, however I'm wondering if there is binary package also?
BTW, any hints on the things that might be problematic with rebuilding the ISOs with newer kernel are more than welcome ;-)
Thanks
CentOS 2.1 no longer fits on 2 CDs. Rebuilding will be a pain.
You are correct about the anaconda versions. You should be able to build the source into a binary but I can send you my built copy if you want.

Currently I don't have 2.1 development box around, so it would be nice if you could send me the binaries. BTW, I'll describe the installation problem I've run into (reason for attempting to rebuild install CDs) in another thread (with more appropraite subjet line).
