Redhat 5.2 install today
After fighting with hard drive hardware issues yesterday, I managed to get redhat installed today. it wasn't without problems though. The KVM switch I was on only supports up to 1024x768 resolution. Apparently the quiet bootloader and x windows is set for something higher by default? After lots of research and relearning a quick edit to the /boot/grub/grub.conf and etc/X11/Xorg.conf and we've got GUI! Now there is some issue with a SSL certificate and still the problem of getting hard drives replaced, but that's for another day. Like I said before.. Linux was looking so good years ago.. and now it seems it's still at the same place. Only hard core techies and a lucky few (those with out of the box compatible hardware) will be inclined to use it on a daily basis.
