Red Hat 9 Freezing on install
 
I try to install Red Hat 9 on my other machine, and when I try to install in text mode it locks up when it is installing DEV-3.3.2-5
when I try to install in graphics mode, it locks up when it is installing something with XFree86

any help would be appreciated.

can you give us an overview of your hardware? also anything that might be unique about your system, such as overclocking, vintage or cutting edge stuff, or non-standard configurations (i chose to make my old cd-rom master and my hard drive slave).

at least cpu/motherboard/harddrive would be helpful as a start, and did you purchase the distro or download it?

its a Dual P2 450Mhz, 256MB RAM, 20GB hard drive, ATI RAGE 128 vid card.
The board is a SCSI board, that might be a problem. any other info you need?
and i downloaded it twice and burnt it twice

what kind of SCSI board, and is it controlling hd?

im not exactly sure what kinda, i think its either an MSI, or intel.

and the hard drive is IDE, nothing is connected to the SCSI ports
