Sam, we've had trouble installing even Windows on a dbanned hard drive. The solution has been to start a Redhat install up to the point of partitioning the disks.

At that point feel free to stop the Redhat install and go back to whatever you really want to install. > -----Original Message----- > From: Sam MacDonald [mailto:smac at visi.com] > Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2004 12:13 PM > To: josh at teamfreeze.com; TCLUG Mailing List > Subject: Re: [TCLUG] The Last Gentoo Try > > > This was try number 5 and I'm at the end of my rope. > I would love to use Gentoo but it needs to work as the > documentation says.
