Re:sbinloader 4698

I already knew the position ofsbin-loader when I asked my original question. That's why I asked for source in my original posting.

I'm not sure the likes of me can ask RedHat for source. Their website seems to require some kind of subscription to be able to get support from them. There is a phone number but I didn't find an email address that one can use to just ask them for things like the source forsbin-loader for RH7. If I'm wrong about that, please let me know the right way to do it.

The main reason I want to see the source ofsbin-loader at the moment is that I think that the shell script anaconda is called with some arguments and I don't know how to find out what they are without looking at the program that actually calls it, which I'm guessing issbin-loader. The reason I think that anaconda is called with some arguments is that the last line of anaconda, which invokes the python script anaconda.real, does so as follows:

When you look at anaconda.real, the first two lines are: #!-usr-bin-python signal.signal(signal.SIGINT,signal.SIGDFL)

If I simply run python on my machine and give it the command signal.signal(signal.SIGINT,signal.SIGDFL) I get an error message about it not knowing what signal means. That goes away if I execute import signal before the command signal.signal(signal.SIGINT,signal.SIGDFL). It also goes away if import signal is put in some file which is in the exec statement at the end of anaconda shell script causes anaconda.real to be called with the same arguments that anaconda itself was called with. So, in order to know what the anaconda.real python script is doing, I think I need to know what arguments anaconda itself was called with. -- Ignorantly, * Disclaimer: I am a guest and *not* a member of the MIT CSAIL.
