Description of problem:
I was doing a fresh install of Redhat 7.0 everything was going well
when it basically just crashed, seemingly after completing the format
of the two partitions on /dev/hda - and it said to tell you all about it so I 
am.

Just tried to install Redhat 5.0 on the box and it also dies at the Install
Bootloader step of the install. I am trying to format over a old Win95 HDD -
is this the root of the problem?
