Manual install from RH6.2 CD

Can it be done? Should I try?

I'm getting this error: "Two logicals in EPT" or something close. Looks
like the RH6.2 installer is complaining about two logical prtitions in the
Extended Partition Table of /dev/hda. Here's hda's partition table:


Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1867 cylinders

(BTW, fdisk also complains, but lets me go ahead. It says:
Warning: ignoring extra data in partition table 5
Warning: ignoring extra data in partition table 5
(yes, twice)
