Barry, 

Thank you for the recommendation.  I only have 4GB of hard drive space,
therefore I allocated 2G to /usr.
The installation completed.

Thank you,
KJ

The bulk of a RHEL installation goes in /usr, and you appear to have a
very small /usr filesystem.  I would recommend a minimum of 3GB for your
/usr filesystem.
