heheh.  that's almost the exact situation we have here.  486/25 running RH6.0

Curious -- why won't 6.1 install?

not sure yet (only tried it today, after burning a CD at work), and the first
thing I get asked after the bootloader is "please insert your driver disk".  It
doesn't matter which mode I choose (graphical, text, or expert), it doesn't say
what driver it's looking for...  oddly enough, RH6.0 installed with no problem
at all...  And I didn't think any drivers were _removed_ from the
installation...

Am I missing something?  Did I burn the CD wrong?  (I don't think so, since it
didn't even ask me where am I installing from)

In my (humble, of course) opinion, the 6.1/6.2 installer is terribly broken. (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
