I am resubmitting this because I had not previously
posted it a members-only list and I was a non-member. I have since signed
up.
I have loaded a spare machine with Win2000. I
partitioned the disk during install as C is Fat 32 - 500 Mb, D is NTFS - 5
Gb, E is NTFS - 1.5 Gb. I left the rest unformatted. The machine has a 20
Gb hard drive, CDROM and floppy with 128Mb of Ram and 1 Ghz CPU. I want to
install RedHat 7.2, which I downloaded and burned the isos to CDs, on part of
the remaining free space (5 Gb for Linux and 2 Gb for
Linus swap) and another operating system on the remainder. When I
installed RedHat 7.2 I entered text at the boot prompt and went through the
installation environment questions. I selected custom install, fdisk and edit.
This is where things because less clear. The install process finished but when I
rebooted the system came up with an error - Win2000 kernel file corrupted. I
have went through the install process twice and both times ended up with the
same error and I had to reload. Currently the machine is configured as described
in the first sentence and does not have any other OS on it. Could you offer some
advise and possibly a step-by-step to get me through this.
I appreciate any suggestions, help or possible
links you can provide.
Thanks in advance.
