Suggestions appreciated...

I got further, fixing my eth0 interface, but still no success. I
didn't get the SCM running correctly after all; a problem comes up in
the createvol command. I'm hoping that I'm just running the wrong
command. The shell script's printed instructions and the HTML docs
disagree on what to type.

Platform: i386 linux
Distribution: today's Redhat Rawhide
Coda installation method: RPM
Coda version: 4.6.5
Kernel: 2.1.120 

Thank you,
Jeff

You need a small log disk partition, preferrably on a disk by itself.
You need a metadata partition of approx 4% of you filespace.

For trial purposes you may give oridnary files instead of raw
partitions. Keep all size small if you do this.
Production servers will want partitions for speed.

WARNING: you are going to play with your partitions now.
verify all answers you give.

WARNING: these choices are not easy to change once you are up and
running.

Are you ready to set up RVM? [yes/no] yes

What is your log partition? /dev/hdc7

The log size must be smaller than you log partition.
We recommend not more than 30M log size, and 2M is a good choice.
What is your log size? (enter as e.g. '12M') 12M

What is your data partition (or file)? /dev/hdc6

The data size must be approx 4% of you server file space.
We have templates for servers of approx: 500M, 1G, 2.2G, 3.3G, 8G
(you can store less, but not more on such servers).
The corresponding data sizes are  22M, 44M, 90M, 130M, 315M.
(use 330M only on very fast machines)
Pick one of the defaults, otherwise I will bail out

What is the size of you data partition (or file) [22M,44M, 90M, 130M,
315M]: 44M

WARNING: DATA and LOG partitions are about to be wiped.

  --- log area: /dev/hdc7, size 12M.
  --- data area: /dev/hdc6, size 44M.

Proceed, and wipe out old data? [y/N] y


LOG file has been initialized!


Rdsinit will initialize data and log.
This takes a while.
rvm_initialize succeeded.
Going to initialize data file to zero, could take awhile.

Your server directories will hold the files (not directories).
You can currently only have one directory per disk partition.

Where shall we store your data [/vicepa]? 
mkdir: cannot make directory `/vicepa': File exists
Shall I set up a vicetab entry for approx 256000 files for /vicepa
(y/n) y
grep: /vice/db/vicetab: No such file or directory
Now initializing the partition. This takes a while....
