Red Hat Linux Question

ssmkim · 03-07-2000, 08:43 PM

I'm trying to install Red Hat Linux 6.0 in my computer, but my computer won't recognize the CD when I restart the computer when I made my CD boot first. What should I do now?

If your computer doesn't recognize the CD as bootable, you will need to make a boot disk. I'm not sure where the RedHat boot disk files are stored, and I thought that it came with one when you buy it. If you downloaded it there is probably a place to download a boot disk there too. I'm not too knowledgeable about RedHat, I usually use Slackware. You might want to visit this site for more information http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ .
