First we need more information; type of set (laptop or desktop; hd size; memory; cpu make and speed. Are you trying to install from a dvd or cd or downloaded iso image? When does it freeze, during install, when booting for the first time? If you'll answer these questions maybe someone can point in the right direction.

I'm not sure I am able to help but I suspect your DVB Twinhan bt878 card. Put Twinhan bt878 in Google Search and it will bring up the problems people have had using this card with linux.

Thank You Dear for Help
its now Ok
The problem was in my Twinhan BT878 , I unplug it then enter suse (this time no problem at startup)then I defined the Twinhan DST drive and all gone very well, then plugged t again
thank you very much

I detect that Suse linux have a very large and wonderfull packages in its DVD, can I take some of these packages from suse DVD and Intall it in RHEL ?
and are there a way I can read all of suse packages in RHEL in order (I mean some thing like ADD/Remove package - package manager) to select what packages I need to install?

thank you very much.
