RE: RH4 installation

	I can't help you with your specifics, but I tried installing RHEL ES
4 on a machine whose SATA chipset (Intel's) wasn't supported on the initial
Enterprise 4 release.  I had to download the Update 2 ISO set before I could
install.  In my case though, the boot kernel wouldn't even SEE the drives
for partitioning, so you've likely gotten past that.  But I wonder if SATA
chipsets are still an issue you're having.  How current is your install
media?  Do you have a Fedora Core 4 set you could try for comparison?

I have a new server that I am loading with RH WE4. I am using 2 SATA
drives and a dual AMD 4200+ processor. The installation hangs after
setting up the filesystems and setting the initial root password. I have
gone through this twice now. Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I
be able to install with only SATA drives installed and no IDE drives
installed?
