What is your RAID array configuration? Did you configure this RAID array using a previous Red Hat Linux installer?
What You mean with RAID array configuration???
What You mean with RAID array configuration??? I add that I have a PC with AMD 900mhz - 256 mb RAM, but I think that problem can be my Monitor (MAG XJ530) with MATROX G450 16MB. In fact I got another message error during installation of REDHAT 7.0: " error opening security policy file /usr/x11R6/lib/x11/xserver/SecurityPolicy Waiting for X server to start " before system recognised Matrox M G400 (generic) and Server x: XF86_SVGA Anyway I tried to install with text mode but with no results: this is the first installer I use (found annexed with the italian review "linux & C." (www.oltrelinux.com). I sent my problem to them too as maybe the disks could be no propers...
It appears that /dev/hdb9 is marked as a RAID autodetect partitoins. The installer is trying to look at its superblock and there is an inconsistency causing this failure.
