I sympathise with your situation over not being able to download the iso images because of using a dialup connection. I have a dialup connection which throws me out after two hours but the telephone line time is free, - so I successfully downloaded RH7.2 CD One and Two (with the RPMs). Overall it took 60 hours download time! - They will enable you to boot straight into an installation if the BIOS is set to look for your CDROM drive after the A drive. Failing that you can use MS DOS utilities in a sub directory to create Floppy boot images and drivers for the CD ROM to start the install from A drive. > !If you wish to send me your full postal address I will send you copies of the ISO image CDs I have made. In your email give me an idea of what installation knowledge you need/have and a list of your hardware - the full instructions are available on the RH support website. If you want to refund me the postage then fine. Best Wishes, Nick :) > ! ----- Original Message ----- > ! From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ! To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > !
