The installation was to go into hdc a secondary IDE HDD.(There are cdrom drives as slaves to each IDE). The process failed in exactly the same way on 3 attempts, on one of which I used the boot input "linux mediacheck" hoping to see if my psche1.iso or floppy file was corrupted from the download. GA-5AX board with AMD K6 (this is referred to as i686 whereas the redhat mirror site directory I downloaded from was i386). Previously I had RH7.2 running on this computer (in fact it still is) though this was a clean install not an upgrade as I'm now dedicating a full drive to Linux rather than a partition as before. I have a crashdump file.

Please make sure only ISOs for disc 1, 2, and 3 are in the directory you are installing from. No other ISO images can be in that directory.
