Sucessfully compiled ClamAV 0.95.2 for Linux.

ClamAV version 0.95.2 for Red Hat Enterprise 5.3 and version 0.95.2 Red Hat Linux Enterprise 4.8.

SRPMS is found here.

The older versions can be found here.

5 cent Tip:

 If we want boot the virtual machine from ISO image. Do the following steps as root:

1. Shutdown the virtual machine.

2. Add the location of iso file into the Xen guest  configuration file:

- old entry in the Xen gues configuration file (say /etc/xen/rhel4es.conf)

disk = [ ‘file:/var/lib/xen/images/rhel4es.img,ioemu:hda,w’]

add iso file into that entry, the new entry will be:

disk = [ ‘file:/var/lib/xen/images/rhel4es.img,ioemu:hda,w’,'file:/opt/RHEL4.6-x86_64-AS-disc1.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r’]

here the location of RedHat Enterprise Linux 4AS update 6 iso file is at /opt. Then change boot entry from:

boot=”c”

to

boot=”d”

boot=”d’ means that the first boot device will be cdrom, not from hard disk (boot=”c”).

3. Start the VM by using command:

# xm  create -c  /etc/xen/rhel4es.conf

Important Note:

If you don’t run that command but simply restart this VM by Virtual Machine Manager, your change is not effective and you still boot your VM  from the hard disk.
