Steve, What version of Red Hat is this? 7.2? RHEL3? In any case, loader is the graphical installer. It needs to be able to open an X session with your X server, which should be running on your desktop (I'm assuming). If you're using SSH to come in, the DISPLAY environment variable should be set for you. For Teraterm, make sure you have X11 forwarding enabled (Setup->SSH Forwarding->X Forwarding). If you're using telnet (DON'T!), you'll need to set it yourself. Plus, of course, make sure you have an X server running.

When I try to run it, it just returns me to a bash prompt. I have tried using PCOM and TERATERM. Do I need some special settings? Is LOADER looking for a specific type of terminal? Thanks, Steve Gentry Lafayette Life Ins. Co.
