Redhat Enterprise Download Test Version does not work
Hello,
I downloaded Redhat Enterprise Linux Server. Supposedly it had 3.675 MB. Yet the download completed after 327.680KB. I could open this file OK using 7z. Then I specified it in Hyper-V as an ISO image as DVD. After I started the VM I received the following error message: Code:
ISOLINUX 4.02 2010-07-21 ETCD Copyright (c) 1994-2010 H. Peter Anvin et AL Why did the download show 3.675MB in size and completed after these 327.680 KB? And why this error message? This really should work much better, if ever s.o should get to like RedHat. Could somebody answer my three questions? Thank you Andreas |

Go to Red Hat's website, and download the ISO image from there. And unless you are going to PAY FOR RHEL, then DO NOT USE IT. You won't get updates/patches/fixes/security updates, and you'll wind up with a system that's not only insecure, but hard to add software to, since you won't have access to the online repositories. Use CentOS instead. |
Hi,
of course, I meant 3,675MB (I am from Germany and here the thousand separator is the dot). OK, I did go to RedHats Website twice (here and abroad) and it completed the download each time at the same amount of byte and it looked as if it were complete rather than interrupted. I suspected an error on RedHat's site. You never know. And why are only Beta versions for tests downloadable? I am still unsure about this whole issue. Do you have a tested download URL that goes beyond 327680Bytes? Or could it be the network here? Sincerly Andi |

AGAIN: If you are not going to PAY FOR RHEL, do not use it. CentOS is 99.x% identical, but free...use it instead. If you ARE going to pay for RHEL, then your best solution is to call Red Hat support, and they will get the issue resolved. |
to download the current RHEL 6.5 you FIRST have to register with redhat
https://www.redhat.com/about/company/offices.html and https://engage.redhat.com/forms/cont...t_sales&eid=21 login to redhat with the credentials you set up download the 4.7 GiB dvd then buy the REQUIRED yearly support contract -- for a server install that is $349 USD to over $8600 USD per year https://www.redhat.com/wapps/store/catalog.html or install CentOS 6.5 it is a FREE rebuild of RHEL source code http://centos.org/ |
Hi,
the download from the net at work somehow did not work. I could download now and install a basic redhat server 6.5 (beta). I am aware that I will have to buy from redhat later on. Yet now I would like to get going with my test system. Now there are other problems: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...38#post5180738 Thank your for any help. Andi |
