Does this machine allow you to install and boot anything else other than RHEL4
on it? 

Did you check that the CDs are good?

What kind of hardware is in the system, especially the interface for the CD and
hard drive (IDE, SCSI, SATA, etc)?

Does this happen every time you try to install on this machine? 

Does it happen on other machines?

Yes. On this machine now working Fedora Core 3, before FC3 on this machine FC2
was work. But with FC2 I have trouble with installation like this. 

> Did you check that the CDs are good?
Yes. I install RHEL on another computer from this disk LATER.

This motherboard with SATA interface. I use SATA HDD Seagate 160Gb and DVD+RW
NEC on PATA. SATA controller working in compatible mode - in enchanced mode
Linux (FC2, FC3, SUSE 9.1, ASPLinux etc.) not working with HDD.



> Does this happen every time you try to install on this machine? 
This happened every time, then I try install FC2 or RHEL4-ES. Another distro - good.

> Does it happen on other machines?
No.

IMHO, Asus P4P800 - very bugly motherboard. How I knew, many people have trouble
with this m/b in Linux. But MS Windows on this m/b working fine.
