It installs quite nicely for me, just spits these errors. The problem is that
its trying to execute /lib/libc.so.6 and find the version from the output
(apparently its possible under red-hat, I don't know whats the difference).
What to kill the errors was after installation to change the file
bin/util/oscheck.sh, line 134. Replace
ver=`/lib/libc.so.6 | head -1 | sed -e "s/^[^0-9]*//" -e "s/[ ,].*$//"`
with
ver=`strings /lib/libc.so.6 | grep "GNU C Library" | sed -e "s/^[^0-9]*//" -e
"s/[ ,].*$//"`
If you can't install, you can probably copy the first cdrom to disk and do the
same with the install file (install in the root of the disk, the file you are
running to start the installation). Its line 697 in that file.
