[ale] Redhat 4.1 install failure..

[Mark E Hood]

Howdy folks! I am trying to install RedHat 4.1 from the CD that i bought
from RedHat. (Official, i guess..) Installation goes great, until..it asks
me for a root password..when i try to set the password, it does not accept
my input. As a result of this, i am stuck at this point..leaving me to
ctrl-alt-del. I am totally stuck here. I have tried several times, to no
avail..same thing each time. I am using a standard 101 keyboard, with a
homebuilt pentium100. Any and all help is gladly welcomed, and muchly
appreciated!
Thanks guys!
