Hi frnds,

I installed Rhel5 through remote installation. it succeeded, but after installation
the system boots up and shows error that "x" respawning too fast disabled for 5 minutes..

And also most of the commands are missing like vi,nano,fdisk,,yum,rpm and and so on..

Please help me guys

Based on what you've posted, there's nothing we can help WITH. You give us no details, such as how you did the remote installation, what you MEAN by remote installation, what kind of hardware you installed it on, whether or not you enabled X in the build or not, etc.

From the little you've said, the installation was NOT successful, so you should try it again. And since you're using RHEL, you should really be contacting RedHat support, since you are paying for it, with your RHEL subscription, right?

Actually Installation will finish successfully.
I did Installation through kickstart and ftp sharing...
No errors while installation, but after rebooting it will go to Run level 3 and shows "X respawning too fast disabled for 5 minutes"

So i tried to edit inittab file through single user mode, but it's showing error that vi command not found.. Even Nano also not there.
Like this so many commands are not there..

And Am not using Redhat subscription..

Thank you frnds

Well, again...the installation did NOT finish successfully, since if it did, you'd be able to find commands. You still don't say what kind of hardware you installed on, how the kickstart image got built (if it includes X), etc. At the grub menu, can you put in a "3", and boot into runlevel 3 normally?? What do the system logs say? Can you boot from CD/DVD, and mount the drives manually?? Again, without DETAILS, there's nothing we can help with.
Then you shouldn't be using RedHat. RHEL is a PAY-FOR product...you can test it for free, but if you plan on building a server, it's a VERY bad idea to use it without paying. You WILL NOT get access to updates/patches/bugfixes/security fixes, and will be in a very bad spot when something like this happens.

Hai frnd


Finally last week I got the answer..
Actually I am working as a trainer.. So no subscription
And the problem was in kickstart file..where i was not entering package names.. So It was installing with default packages..But I don't know why it installed only few packages..
Finally I have entered all the packages names by rpm -qa and kept those names at the last of kickstart file under %packages command..

Thank you frnds..
