Using the bootnet.img from the RedHat updates directory, I've encountered the following error while to create a boot disk from the installer: loop.o: kernel-module version mismatch loop.o was compiled for kernel version 2.2.5-14BOOT while this is kernel 2.2.12-2.6.0BOOT. It looks like there was a mistake somewhere. The install server is a local nfs server, mirrored from the RedHat archive on metalab approx. one week ago. This is going to be a real problem on systems that, for whatever reason, are unable to boot off the hard disk from the BIOS.
