Re: install RHEL 3 Up4 dell 7400

Thank you Colin,

    I know that, but it is a requirement of the software for which the
computer was acquired
to use RedHat 3, otherwise it could be very difficult to install, or so
they say. I Forgot to mention that
the computer came with RHEL 5 already installed, but i have not tried to
install the software
on it, because of the compatibility issues that i have mentioned.

 In other issues, I am going to give a try with the images included in
the installation dvd  (RHEL 5)
to see if this could work. If it does, i'll post the results here. If
not, well,  I guess i'll keep asking for help :)

thanks,
Sergio Arregui
