[AG-TECH] Node setup Wizard

[Patrick Johnson]

I got 2.3 to install fine on XP Pro but I'm having trouble with the
RHEL.  I download all the RPMs from the Fedora Core 1 as you suggested.
However, when I try to install them the system hangs.  I used the
command in the following order ...

Rpm -ivh wxGTK* alsa* openoffice* gpt* wxPython* globus* wxmozilla*
AccessGrid*

I get the following output and then it hangs ...

Warning wxGTk2.4.2-0.fdr.1.1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID
8df56d05
Preparing...        ############################################ [100%]
     1:alsa-lib     ############################################ [8%]

I'm running kernel 2.4.21-20.EL

I appreciate your help, 


Patrick

	Patrick,

	I agree with David. Use 2.3, I had an amazingly easier time
getting 
things to work, not to mention 2.3 is a usable speed (2.2 was slow as 
molasses for me for some reason).
	For simplicity and to avoid confusion I would uninstall previous

versions as much as possible.

For Windows, get and install the following:
	AGTk-2.3-Py-2.3.exe
	ActivePython-2.3.2-232-win32-ix86.msi
	wxPythonWIN32-2.5.1.5-Py23.exe

For RedHat, get and install all the RPMS from here:

You should probably read these notes too:

	Yes, it says Fedora Core1, but they work with no problems in
RedHat9. 
I'd hope it'd work on Enterprise too. If they're dedicated machines you 
could always go the Gentoo route too, since it appears to be 'officially

supported' by ANL.

	I have a RedHat and XP machine for our node and it worked great.
I had 
the whole lot running in an hour.

	Derek
