That motherboard appears to be quite new, so you should try installing any relatively new distro. Red Hat 9 is obsolete and has been unsupported since 2004 (I think). You could try Fedora or CentOS if you like Red Hat.

Hi
Actually I have to install linux thru usb(bootable) but my initrd doesnt supports intel 945
Is there any commands to modify initrd so that it supports intel 945 chipset.
Error i get is:
Kernel Panic - not syncing:Attempted to kill init.

Thank You

Redhat 9.0 (Shrike) is an obsolete distro, and has been superseded by Fedora Core. Please consider using an up-to-date, supported distro for security and compatibility reasons
