Installing Open Manage on a PE 2950 centos 5.1 box

[Baird, Josh]

Just mount the CD like you would in RH..
 
mount /dev/cdrom /mountpoint
 
Alternatively you may download OMSA from Dell's website, and extract it to a folder on your box.  You can also install it via the respository (although I think it only has 5.2.0).  Once you have the package extracted, you will need to run linux/supportscripts/srvadmin-install.sh.  Since you are using CentOS, you will need to either edit /etc/redhat-release to contain that of a RHEL box, or modify srvadmin-install.sh to allow the "CentOS" string contained in /etc/redhat-release on your CentOS box.
 
There is plenty of documentation on this list and on Dell's site and wiki (linux.dell.com).

Hi,
 
Can anyone please point me to a step by step procedure to mount from my CD RW the "Systems Console and Agent" disk and run the install script contained on disk to install Open Manage server administrator v 5.3 on new PE 2950 server?  I'm nerw to Centos, migrating from an older RH box.
 
I RTFM for OMSA that shipped with unit, could not find much help there though.
 
Thanks.
