Re: Linux RH9 installation problem

Someone posts something like this at least once a week. RH9 is an antique
distribution, unless you have some particular piece of software that
won't run on a modern distribution there is no reason to install it. The
current free Redhat version is Fedora Core 6. Download FC6 and give that a
try.

Or CentOS 3.x /4.x or Scientific Linux 3.x / 4.x, the 3.x series is based on
the older RHL8/9/FC1 versions and the 4.x series is based on the FC3/4
