Phillip, I am not sure if this will be of any help but I burnt a copy of CentOS which I think is based on RedHat onto a USB.
Tried to bootload and install. Simply hung. CentOS has a text mode boot/install option so I selected that and though I have no means of capturing the data or stopping it without losing thedata I can see what is happening as things roll up the screen. This is a synopsis of whot I have seen (could not record it all): ATA1 Sata ATA-8 Hitachi ATA-9 Samsung SD - 500 (the Samsung) SD - 32 (the Hitachi) SD 0:0:0:0 [SDA] Attached scsi disk sda: sda1 sda2 sda4 MD Bind<SDB> MD Bind<SDA> .........................Long pause dracut: assembling MD Raid Array dracut: Autoassembling MD Raid dracut: mdadm(IMSM) : Unsupported attributes 2000000 dracut: mdadm: Unsupported attributes in IMSM metadata.
