Your hardware might be to modern? It comes from the time of PII and early PIII computers and you definitely will have problems installing on modern hardware.

CentOS5 is a newer os and it would definitely wont be a problem to install it. RH9 is old too but still more than couple of years younger then RH7. So they could have the drivers for your machine.
Your issue could be related to display drivers. |

So you can install CentOS 5 (or anything else if you prefer it) and use it as host for VMWare/Virtualbox/Qemu. Inside one of the VM you can install Redhat 7.2 without too much difficult. |
Thanks Valery Reznic, it might solve my worry about a RH6.2 server that we're still using (it only has to survive another 1.5 - 2 years).
