There may be useful info there as far as what is failing. When the error appears on screen, try ctl-alt-F2 then you can use alt-F3, F4, and maybe F5 to look for: - errors or failures. - check that the device is correct (/dev/hdb or hdc or ...) If getting the server installed is a main priority, and if you have another Linux box, throw the iso images on and install via NFS. You can do this by either booting by floppy or off the cd --askmedia (or something like that, check the help in the main install screen). -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
