Hello All,

I was trying to install Redhat AS 4.6 on a 32 bit AMD proceessor and the
instalation fails stating that this hardware configuration is not supported
by this version of enterprise linux. I got evaluvatoin license for AS
4.6and downloaded the DVD based iso for x86. Based on this I thought
that it
should work on AMD too.

Now is there a way I can find out exactly for which "hardware" the
installation failed. Could it be because of RAM size or cache size or vga ?
What are the other types of checks that the instalation software makes to
determine hardware compatibility. The system I am installing AS 4.6 is not a
high end machine and its required for experimentation.

I looked at the hardware compatibility list but I was unable to conclusive.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Phani
