question: which kernel exactly is used during the installation process? i presume this is NOT the kernel found in redhat's updates? cause the updates redhat add seem to also include support for newer hardware. i guess it should be possible to somehow take their installation floppy, replace its kernel with the updated kernel, and try again. ofcourse, checking if the updated kernel supports the IDE chipset beforehand would be a good idea ;) but then again - you probably already thought about trying this route... and btw, its your fault that you didn't state you already tried those ideas ;) -- guy "For world domination - press 1, or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
