Holy Cow! Dang - that thing sounds like an absolute SCREAMER mate! Dunno if there's an OS that can handle such a monster machine! Don't think that OS/2 has drivers for it yet...but hey, I'll be it can defrag faster than dirt! JOKING! I installed RH on a machine like that - about a year ago - the only thing I had a problem with was the onboard video - so I think that due to it's age, you shouldn't have a problem with drivers in MDK 9.0 (or even MDK 8.2) Have you tried booting up the first CD with it yet to see how far you get or if the graphical installer takes over? -- Sat Mar 15 10:20:00 EST 2003 10:20:00 up 2:15, 5 users, load average: 0.07, 0.29, 0.26 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ linux user:267497 * MDK 9.1 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** This messages was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer ** Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
