Andy,

Have you thought about that it might not be a hard drive problem? Red Hat
is pretty cool about reformatting your hard drives. If the installation
program crashes on you, my bet would be that its probably faulty RAM, Ive
had the same problem using a stick of generic 256Mb DDR...those can cause
some major instability.

Just my 2 cents.
