failed to boot RH7.2 after install

Hello,

After fresh installation of RH7.2, when start up, it
appears to hang at "Configuring kernel parameters",
but it can still can get into and out of sleep. Ctrl-C
helps to get pass it.

Then the following message is displayed:

INIT: Entering runlevel: 3
/etc/rc.d/rc: /var/run/runlevel.dir: Read-only file
system Updating /etc/fstab failed to open
/etc/fstab.NEW: Read-only file system    [FAILED]

And it then wait a long time after "Starting system
logger".

Finally it shows:
INIT: Id "2", respawning too fast: disabled for 5
minutes
then a line for Id "5", "6", "1", "4" ..... and never
ends.

My PC details:

486 DX2, 32MB

IRQ   devices
1     keyboard
3     com2
4     com1
5     NE2000 compatible NIC

8     RTC
10    sound

14    HDD controller

1.7GB SCSI drive on ID 0
237MB SCSI dirve on ID 1 (128MB used as swap
partition)
DVDROM on primary IDE (for installation)

X Windows is not selected for install. Installation
using either "expert" or "text" mode.

Installation completed with no errors. Tried a number
of different ways of installation e.g. choosing min.
or default packages, using GRUB or LILO, etc., all
result the same.

Thank you for your kind advice.
