I've been running Suse for a while and wanted to try the new RH 9.0.
I downloaded all 3 disks and was trying to install them on to my little
266Mhz box but cant seem to be able to boot from the CD.
I then created the bootable disk.img using rawrite off RH site,
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/s1-steps
-install-cdrom.html#S2-STEPS-MAKE-DISKS
I am able to boot from the floppy but it does not want to see the CD drive.
I will do the "linux askmethod" in the hopes it will see the CD drive but
the only thing I get is "boot failed".
Just some background info. I am using a Win2k box to download and burn
these files. My linux box does not have a burner in it. I also donÂt want
to go out and buy the CD's as I just wanted to play around with it.
Anyone got an idea?
Thanks
C
