Hei,
I noticed few a little bit strange things when installing Red Hat Linux 6.1
via Graphical User Interface Installation:
- my hardware is quite old (AST Bravo/AST display)but still working :-)
- I start with RH boot diskette (6.1), RH 6.1 CD-ROM is also loaded. (no
bootable CD-ROM). Package is Official Red Hat Linux 6.1 Standard.
- GUI Installation starts and everything is OK since install-process comes
to X Configuration panel.
- my monitor (AST Vision) does not appear on the monitor-list, so I have to
choice Custom. But I can't, because there is no Custom-choice on the list!?
- only way to pass through the installation is text-mode installation
(Custom is available there).

So, is this true or is there something wrong in my hardware environment
(except it is old)?

Second,
- when you start text-mode installation, you can't have CD-ROM already
loaded
- if you have, your keyboard configuration will fail (finnish-keyboard
settings does not appear and with Disk Druid there will be big difficulties
forexample with /-sign)
- how to make it work:
1. load boot diskette
2. start computer ->  boot: text
3. select Local CD-ROM (here the installer says it can't find Red Hat
CD-ROM loaded... (could the message be here: Load Red Hat Linux 6.1
CD-ROM...and so on). Anyway, load CD-ROM here. After you have described the
language and keyboard-type (fi-latin1) everything goes fine.

Okay, these are little problems with old hardware and I suppose you already
are familiar with them, but anyway, this was my report.
