i am trying to install redhat 9 on my dual
harddrive sys. i have 2 HD one with XP on at the moment both were ntfs but i
was having such a nightmare trying to install RH9 on the 2nd drive that i
convreted it to fat32 (through fdisk and format c: in dos) however, this drive
is definetly is fat32 as windows see's it as that and so does parttion magic
but i cant seem to install RH9 as it crashes every time during the install (or
b4 sometimes) i have used the same disks on two computers before and had no
trouble, once on a single partition drive on my toshiba satalite laptop and
once on another fat32 sys (i think it was fat32)
help please!
