Starting the Installation Program

To start, first make sure that you have all necessary resources for the
installation. If you have already read through Chapter 1, Steps to Get You
Started, and followed the instructions, you should be ready to start the
installation process. When you have verified that you are ready to begin, boot
the installation program using the Red Hat Enterprise Linux DVD or CD-
ROM #1 or any boot media that you have created.

Note

Occasionally, some hardware components require a driver diskette during the
installation. A driver diskette adds support for hardware that is not otherwise
supported by the installation program.

Problems with Booting into the Graphical Installation

There are some video cards that have trouble booting into the graphical installation program. If the installation program does not run using its default settings, it tries to run in a lower resolution mode. If that still fails, the installation program attempts to run in text mode. One possible solution is to try using the resolution= boot option. This option may be most helpful for laptop users. Another solution to try is the driver= option to specify the driver that should be loaded for your video card. If this works, it should be reported as a bug as the installer has failed to autodetect your videocard. Note To disable frame buffer support and allow the installation program to run in text mode, try using the nofb boot option. This command may be necessary for accessibility with some screen reading hardware.
