Question Cannot install Redhat Linux 7.2...Help...


I cannot install the Redhat Linux 7.2 in my computer.
When redhat linux is booted from CD-rom, the computer is hang in loading SCSI driver screen. My SCSI controller is adaptec AIC-786X SCSI controller.

Also, I disable the PCI SCSI chip in BIOS. But Redhat linux also detect the SCSI controller and hang when load the SCSI driver.

Moreover, I use the driver disk to install the linux. I type "expert" in boot mode and go to the installation screen. But the computer also hang in loading SCSI driver screen.

I think my SCSI controller may unsupport by Redhat Linux 7.2. But I disabled the PCI SCSI chip so Redhat Linux should not detect the SCSI controller. Unfortuntely, Linux detects the SCSI controller.

How can I do?
Have solution to solve this problem?

Hardware Specification
CPU: AMD K6 200MHz
Ram: 96MRam
HD: ATA-10G
Display Card: Sorry...forgot!

Help me...Help me...
Thanks!

i don't know much about redhat..
but remember i read that 7.3 is much better than 7.2

i would try redhat.com for your error until someone answer your question.
mandrake does report workaround for installation problems..
i guess so does redhat..
