Hello *, I am "new" to Fedora since I was using long time ago DLD (Deutsche Linux Distribution from Delix which was bougth by RedHat in 1999) and I need a little bit help to start. If this list is not the right one, please let me know. I am Debian GNU/Linux Consultant in Strasbourg and now have to work with RedHat and Fedora since my customers proprietary software does not work on ANY Debian machines. I need to package some software for my customer and like to know HOW to package it. Curently I run only Debian Unstable/Stable and I am doubt if I can create packages under Debian without installing a Xen Machine for it since learning the whole RedHat/Fedora thing is currently a little bit to much. Now I have some questions: 1) Where can I find the "Packaging Tutorial"? 2) Where can I find the "Guidelines for Packaging"? 3) Where can I find infos about the FSH (File System Hierarchy) since it is a little bit different from Debian? 4) What does I need to build my own private fedors mirror (RPMs and SRPMs) with GPG signed packages? 5) If I create my own private fedora mirror on my server, is it possibel under Fedora to have the mirror password protected? x) What should I know more? y) Is there a tutorial, "HOW TO INSTALL" a Fedora-Xen-DomU on a Debian host system. My Development station is a AMD Phenom Quad 9800 with 8 GByte of memory and 74 GByte SCI/SCA drives (one per guest OS).
