Trouble installing RedHat 8

telecomnerd · 06-10-2004, 08:12 AM

I just had a computer donated to me, it has a 466MHz celeron, 128MB of ram and onboard sound card.
I have RedHat 8 on 2 CDs, when i boot from CD1 it asks for graphical or text mode. I have tried both and i get a blue screen for 30 minutes, then it says "Running anaconda...." for 5 minutes, and after that it kills all the running processes and tells me its safe to reboot. Any suggestions?
