That's because the installation script is squelching all the error messages
you might see.  Unfortunately, it doesn't help with debugging efforts.

Again, the error messages are being sent to /dev/null.  The version of Red Hat
you're installing is either 7.2 (32bit) or 7.1 (64bit).  In either case, the
QETH/QDIO OCO modules are not included.  You would have to be installing RHEL
3 for that.  As Vic already pointed out, you need to go to the IBM
developWorks web site, download the correct OCO modules for your version of
the Red Hat kernel, build the "additional/secondary initrd" and try your
installation again.
