Red Hat 6 Installation Guide – RHEL 6 Install Screenshots

Updated by on Jun 16, 2011 in Featured, Install Guides, Linux, Most Popular, Red Hat (RHEL) | 158 comments

This is Red Hat 6 RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) installation guide, step-by-step walkthrough with screenshots. Current version of Red Hat 6 is Beta, but also this RHEL 6 Beta version looks very stable and good OS, so that’s why I decided to write this RHEL 6 Installation guide.

The Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Beta is available on the following architectures:

  • i386
  • AMD64/Intel64
  • System z
  • IBM Power (64-bit)

Download Red Hat 6 Beta DVD images here.

Some of the many improvements and new features that are included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

  • Power management – tickless kernel and improvements through the application stack to reduce wakeups, power consumption measurement by Powertop, Power Management (ASPM, ALPM), and adaptive system tuning by Tuned, all enhance more efficient system power usage.
  • Next generation networking – comprehensive IPv6 support (NFS 4, CIFS, mobile support [RFC 3775], ISATAP support), FCoE, iSCSI, and a new and improved mac 802.11 wireless stack.
  • Scalable filesystems – ext4 file system provides support for larger file sizes and significantly reduces repair times over ext3. XFS® is a high-performance file system that supports extremely large files and is optimized for large data transfers.
  • Virtualization – KVM includes performance improvements and new features, sVirt protects the guest and host from unauthorized access, SR-IOV and NPIV deliver high-performance virtual use of physical devices, and libvirt leverages kernel resource management functionality.
  • Enterprise security enhancement – SELinux includes improved ease of use, application sandboxing, and significantly increased coverage of system services, while SSSD provides unified access to identity and authentication services as well as caching for off-line use.
  • Development and runtime support – SystemTap improvements, ABRT is a new framework for simple collection and reporting of bug information, and improvements are made to GCC (version 4.4.3), glibc (version 2.11.1), and GDB (version 7.0.1).

On this guide I use Graphical Installer. There is also Kickstart automated installation method and Text-based Installer available. And I install this machine for Software Development Workstation and testing environment. So package selection is following: Desktop, Web server, Databases, Compiling tools, Java. Same method works also for servers, normal desktops and other setups, but of course different software selection. So let’s begin installation…

Burn Downloaded Image to DVD and Boot Computer Using Red Hat 6 Installation DVD

Check RHEL image MD5 sum and burn image to DVD with your favourite CD/DVD burner. And boot computer using Red Hat Installation DVD.

    hi,

    I have installed RHEL6 beta version. (Kernel 2.6.32).
    After installation it asked for creating user (in the previous version RHEL5, there used to be an option to continue without creating new user, so we can boot using root user.) but here it does not allow to do so, unless you create a user.
    now after, reboot, i am not able to boot to the root user.
    how can i boot to root user??

      Hi Jrfodao,

      I do not quite understand that what you mean “boot to the root user”?

      Boot always happens the same way, it does not depend on users. So if you create normal users, it doesn’t affect booting.

    Hi,
    I can’t even get to the graphical installation stage, and I think it might have something to do with my nvidia Geforce 6200 card. Any ideas?

      Hi Jave,

      Did you tried Install system with basic video driver option on grub?

      Do you get any error messages when Anaconda is loading? With normal install and/or with basic video driver install?

      Hi Nilesh,

      Did you install the desktop or did you just the server installation? What do you chose in step 17?

      Then you can simply try following command:

      startx

      Do you get desktop running or any errors?

      Hi koolstufff,

      You could try to disable ACPI from bios or check ACPI advanced settings and disable WHEA (Windows Hardware Error Architecture) if exists.

      What’s happening then?

        Hi JR

        RHEL 6 installation halted at the “waiting for hardware to initialize” stage. Error type is like

        “I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0″. There is no Floppy drive present in the system. Would u plz give me a solution.

          Hi RAZ,

          You could try to boot with following settings, so add following to kernel line on Grub:

          nomodeset acpi=off
          Reply
  6. koolstufff / July 21, 2010

    Hi JR
    I Checked with BIOS configuration. WHEA (Windows Hardware Error Architecture) was allready disabled there.

    Still the same issue.

    • JR / July 21, 2010

      Did you try to disable ACPI completely?

      Reply
  7. koolstufff / July 22, 2010

    Hi JR
    There is no option as ACPI.
    Under the “Advanced Setup ” in BIOS I got following options
    -Memory Settings
    -CPU Options
    -PCI Bus Control
    -Baseboard Management Controller(BMC) Settings
    -WHEA Setting

    I have disabled WHEA but it is making no difference.

    Thanks

      Hi again,

      Try following:

      Edit Grub with Pressing “e”-button on Grub and then edit kernel row with pressing “e”-button again on kernel row and append following (at the end of row):

      acpi=off

      Then press enter and boot with pressing “b”-button…

      This should Soft-off (soft-disable) ACPI.

      Did you get rid of the issue?

    Hi,
    I’m reading this thread after install problems with RHEL 6.0b2.My system has Nvidia GeForce 6150 SE with nforce 430 and a large flat monitor LG L1919S (19” with 1280×1024 pixel).

    After “install or upgrade an existing system” choice I’ve a blank screen (during anaconda start..)
    or
    After “install system with basic video driver” choice I’ve a text only installation because anaconda fails to start….
    This is my X.log with basic video driver mode:

      Hi Axposf,

      You could maybe try remove old Xorg.conf file and reboot:

      su -
 
mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
 
reboot

      Hi again kathir,

      Yes you are right you can run this command using Rad Hat (RHEL) 6 command line, but posting this output here is not so simple.

      Actually you could try following. Use RHEL 6 console and write following:

      lspci |grep -i vga

      Output should look something like:

      01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation...

      Please post this line here.

      I think lspci command should found and graphic card should found also or you can’t connect monitor on your computer.

      Hi Ton,

      You could have easily dual booting for Red Hat (RHEL) 6 with Ubuntu 10.04. Simply add Ubuntu to Red Hat boot loader (grub) on step 16. Configure boot loader options. Or alternatively, install Red Hat boot loader (grub) another partition than /dev/sda and add Red Hat 6 to Ubuntu boot loader (grub).

    I am new to RHEL 6. I do not have a subscription for RHEL from Redhat. What is the downside of this? Is there a way to get updates from redhat without buying a subscription?

    Does everyone need to buy a subscription from redhat to use RHEL 6? I guess we can still use the system with the original RHEL 6 install but without any updates.

    Any comments?

    Thanks

    • JR / February 18, 2011

      Hi Jatin,

      You are right, you can’t get updates to your RHEL from Red Hat without buying a subscription.

      If you want good free alternatives then use CentOS on servers and Fedora on desktop.

      CentOS uses RHEL packages without RHEL branding and is as stable as RHEL. Fedora is very very early version of RHEL. Example RHEL 6 based on Fedora 12. And newest Fedora version is Fedora 14. So if you want latest programs to desktop then use Fedora.

        • JR / February 22, 2011

          Biggest difference between Ubuntu and CentOS/Fedora is packages and package management. Ubuntu uses deb packages with apt and CentOS/Fedora uses rpm packages with yum.

          Ubuntu is primarily best for desktop usage, just like Fedora and Ubuntu server (maybe even Debian) is good choice to the server side, just like CentOS.

          It’s really hard to say which is best, but nowadays Fedora is my favorite distro for desktop usage and normally I use CentOS on server side.

    I installed RHEL 6 (non-beta I presume) with the text option (down arrow at first prompt) and choose to do a Software Deveolopment system as that I was what I have been using for all previous RedHat ES Linux versions. I was never quired for IP info during that installation and after I was done, networking wasn’t there. I choose to opt out of IPv6 since the final products for this system are programs written to run under Tiger Logic’ D3 and Flashconnect programs which do not work with IPv6.
    I was able to get networking working (sic) by copying a ifcfg-eth0 file from a RHEL 5 system into /etc/sysconfig/network-scriptes. The network option then showed up under Setup (there was not IP options available withing Setup before this) and I have the system working like I want. However, I do this as a consultant for the company who has all the D3/Flashconnect progams as their buisness and I expect to be re

    I have not good idea of what all the custom options that are available for RHEL 6 as there were bit nearly that many for previous ES verions, If there is a good source that will explain the meaning of all the options, I would like to know about it.

      Hi Andy,

      Are you booting your RHEL 6 in run level 5 (graphical run level)?

      Red Hat FirstBoot tool should appear on first time you boot in run level 5. I just checked that from RHEL 6 manual. Of course you could create your user(s) manually and do other configurations, but FirstBoot tool is very simple to use.

          I chose Software Development Workstation because I want to demonstrate Red Hat Desktop installation.

          If you select server installation, then you should not get 25. Red Hat 6 Welcome screen (Red Hat FirstBoot tool) because you are just installed server without GUI (X.org or any desktop). So you have to do your configuration manually from command line. But if you want to install Linux with Desktop then you should select Desktop or Software Development Workstation.

    Mother Borad = M68Mt – s2p (NVIDIA® GeForce 7025/nForce 630a chipset )
    Processor = AMD Athlon II Quad core
    Memory = 4GB

    Also, i have downloaded a 30 days evaluation version of RHEL 6.1 from Redhat.

    During my installation, i am getting an error as “X failed, falling back to text mode” and the installation runs in init 3 level.

    I tried changing the run level to 5 again the same issue. Also tried “startx” same error.
    But when i tried installing the same RHEL 6.1 in Virtual box, it is working fine and i getting GUI mode. I am not aware why this is, the issue seems to be only with the base machine installation and ai m not getting this in Virtual machine.

    Pls help me sorting this out this issue. Browsed the web, googled, read documents and tried many types of trouble shoot but i am unable to clear this.

    I need to practice this linux OS as i have some serious commitment towards my career.

      Hi Sharad,

      I think that some basic graphic card with 64 Mb – 512 Mb memory is enough for smooth use. Actually there is no absolute requirement for video memory, because RHEL 6 works nicely even without graphic card and monitor… :)

      I can’t say exact Dell laptop model which is 100% compatible with RHEL 6. Good guideline is check example following things: nVidia or Intel graphic card and enough RAM at least 4 Gb. Nowadays almost all laptop is working nicely with Linux without any special configuration. Some fingerprint readers or stuff like that need some configuration. But if you want find just Dell laptop, then select model and let me know, before you buy it and then we can try to find out information, how is it working with Linux and RHEL 6…

      Yes runlevels might sound big topic, but here is just needed runlevel 3 and 5. If you run init 3 then X-server is stopped and if you run init 5 then it’s started. But yes you have to get xorg stopped before you can install nVidia drivers with this method. So yes try to log in as root and then run init 3 command. Then try to install nVidia drivers?

      Hi again kishore,

      It’s good that you have free space for RHEL. If you want easy way to install it then just delete whole D-partition on Windows and on step 12. select “Use Free Space” option and “Review and Modify partition layout”. You get RHEL installer suggestion for partition layout and just check that your Windows partion is not formatted.

      Another way is not hard too just select “Create Custom Layout” on step 12. Then you have to delete your D-partition and create custom layout. Be sure that you delete right partition, because your partitions are not named C and D.

      Then on step 16 just check that the RHEL installer recognize also your Windows installtion.

      Please let me know, if you have some problems and need more assistance… :)
