Comment 1 Need Real Name 2000-12-06 22:57:30 UTC 
This happened after I chose to install linux on hdd1 instead of the mbr.
I have installed redhat with this same cd and no probs. The only difference 
this time is that i made a 15mb dos partition during disk druid.

This is fixed in newer releases of Red Hat Linux.
