well,

this was the line with my config
kernel /vmliniz-2.4.22-1.2115.ntpl | ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi rhgb

I tried to change it to
kernel /vmliniz-2.4.22-1.2115.ntpl | ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi rhgb
confirm

but it did not do anything

I could hit the i key at the right time (after a lot of trying)
i chose to start several services but not firstboot, but then the system
hung when 'turing on swap space' (I am using dutch redhat so i do not know
if it appears that way in the english version)

I would really like to use this distribution, I loved RH9 but I cannot
install it on my new pc.

grtz

Matt
