Unhappy Upgrade to RH Enterprise 3 (ES) + /sbin folder !!!!


Hello,

I have a Linux server running Red Hat 8. In order to install Oracle 9i, I need to upgrade my Linux Operating System to Linux Red Hat Enterprise 3 (ES).

Can I just insert the 4 CDs for and Enterprise 3 (ES) and upgrade my OS like that ? Is it straight forward ?

Also, I looked at my root directories on my server and this is what it looks like:

.gconf
.gnome2
.kde
.gconfd
.gnome2_private
.metacity
.gnome
.gnome_desktop
.nautilus

Any ideas where could the sbin sub-folder be located?

Regards,


PT

That's not your root folder, more like your users home directory. You wouldn't have much of a system with only those directories installed.

cd /

To get to your root directory.
