I assume you mean the md5 checksum on the original RH6.2 CD. If that is the
case, then yes. I've burned that CD (under WinDoze) and installed from it
with no problems.
Thanks for the thought though. I'm at wits end on the damn thing.

Jake, I can't find my loadlin stuff. It's really very easy,
though; go to Freshmeat and look for loadlin. Make a directory for it
on your Windows partition. Copy your Linux kernel to that directory
too. Then you boot to DOS and start Linux with syntax like this:
loadlin vmlinuz-2.2.14 root=/
Would passing the "read-only" option to the kernel at the LILO: prompt
have the desired effect?

You have to install LILO in your boot partition if you want to use
pqboot. Then, you have to edit pqboot to add linux as a bootable os.
BTW, this is all in the Red Hat manuals, if you have them handy.
