4. Reboot the system.

4.9. gnome-volume-manager

The GNOME Volume Manager monitors volume-related events and responds with user-specified
policy. The GNOME Volume Manager can automount hot-plugged drives, automount inserted
removable media, autorun programs, automatically play audio CDs and video DVDs, and
automatically import photos from a digital camera.
• Removable storage devices (such as CDs and DVDs) do not automatically mount when you are
logged in as root. As such, you will need to manually mount the device through the graphical file
(BZ#209362)
manager.
Alternatively, you can run the following command to mount a device to /media:
mount /dev/[device name] /media

4.10. initscripts

The initscripts package contains system scripts to boot your system, change runlevels, activate and
deactivate most network interfaces, and shut the system down cleanly.
• On systems with more than two encrypted block devices, anaconda has a option to provide a
global passphrase. The init scripts, however, do not support this feature. When booting the system,
entering each individual passphrase for all encrypted devices will be required.
• Boot-time logging to /var/log/boot.log is not available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3.

4.11. iscsi-initiator-utils

The iscsi package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI protocol, as well as the utility programs
used to manage it. iSCSI is a protocol for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over
Internet Protocol networks.
• Removing the bnx2 modules or running ifdown on the network interface being used by bnx2i driver
will result in the iSCSI sessions being disconnected. Reloading the module or running ifup, will not
reconnect the SCSI sessions. To work around this issue, the iscsi service must be stopped and then
(BZ#514926)
restarted.
• iSCSI iface binding is not supported during install or boot. The initiator only supports the ability to
log into target portals using the default behavior where the initiator uses the network routing table to
decide which NIC to use.
