I have tried to install Red Hat Linux 9 on my system, but I recieve a
message the my system isn't supported by this version when the installer
tries to format the /boot partition. I am installing on my second hard drive
for a dual-boot with Windows 98. I meet all the system requirements and have
tried to install in text mode, but it doesn't work. Please help.

System Configuration:
ASUS P5A-B
AMD K6-2 500
288 MB PC-100 RAM
MSI MS-8807 TNT2 16 mb ram
WD 60GB & Fujitsu 4GB Hard drives
Compaq 48x Cd-rom
