Installation can be done from CD, FLASH, hard disk or network (PXE).

The system can run from hard disk or network (PXE).

Installation documentation is available online at:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.4/html/Installation_Guide/index.html

For PXE installations, detailed instructions are in chapter 34 of the
above manual.
