Re: installing rh 7.2 on ia64

Is there a efi shell in your server?
if exist, you can enter the shell,then at the EFI symbol,type fs0:(or fs1: .....)
     EFI>fs0:
you can see the boot files,such as elilo.conf and so on!
type elilo and enter
    EFI>elilo
then you can see  the installation program!

good lucky!
