To install RedHat for mips/mipsel, please do

1. Install the rpm-python rpm.
2. Make sure `/export/[mips|mipsel]root' is where you want to install
RedHat for mips/mipsel.
3. Run

# make

to install RedHat for mips/mipsel. You can run it on either RedHat
for x86 or RedHat for mips/mipsel. If you run it on RedHat for x86,
none of the RPM scripts will be run during the install and the system
won't work right. However, you can boot RedHat for mips/mipsel over
network with NFS root at `/export/[mips|mipsel]root' and then run

# /root/setup

first by passing `init=/root/setup rw' to kernel. It should help a lot.
It assumes you are using serial console with 38400 baud rate, 8N1. If
not, you have to modify /etc/inittab for your console.

First time when you boot to the big endian mips machine over NFS root
on Linux/x86 prepared on Linux/x86 with "make install", you should run

# rpm --rebuilddb

first since Linux/x86 is little endian.

If you don't have perl which has to be built natively, please remove
perl from native.list for the initial installation. You could build
perl natively on your newly installed mips box inside the baseline tree
by

# cd and set up baseline tree
# cd perl
# make native

You also should run

# rpm -U --force postfix-xxx-xxx.rpm
# /usr/sbin/alternatives --set mta  /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix

to correctly configure postfix after perl is installed.
