The doc say at the boot: prompt you can type linux
mediacheck then it supposed to ask the locaction of
the iso files . It DOES NOT DO THAT.

Also the requirement to have iso file on and non VFAT
or NTFS file system. Many users will download using
WIN200 or XP using VFAT or NTFS systems.

The thinkpad uses a ATI rage 128 mobility chip set it
works properly under rh7.1 but when I do a fresh
install of rh8.0 the dccprobe reports unknow. But if I
do an upgrade of 7.1 to 8.0 it works.

redhat-config-xfree86 doesn't help either.
