I am using custom install option. Also I've tried remove all the adaptor cards except the bare minimun, ie video card and ide card and the problem still occurs. I've tried with debian 2.0 and had no problem.
What are you installing from (CD, network, etc)?
I am installing from hard drive. Originally I have 2 hd, one ide 2.5 G and the other scsi 1.0 G. The redhat binary is store 2nd partition of 2.5 G hd. Its first partition was installed with NT 4.0 terminal server. I am trying to install liniux on 1.0 G scsi but failed. But later I tried removing the scsi adapter and hd and just partition ide to 3. And then I tried to install linux on the 3rd partion of ide hd still failed.
Can you check the md5sums of the isos that you downloaded? Sounds like something may have gone wrong in the transfer.
