On my home machine I wasn't able to boot from the CD (due to some goofy BIOS fluke). I made a boot disk with \IMAGES\BOOT.IMG and didn't have big problems. It had some trouble detecting my mouse unless I was jiggling it around while anaconda was looking for it - I'm using a Logitech wireless kb & mouse. The first time it couldn't find the mouse it wanted to do a non-graphical install. I did a ctrl+alt+del, jiggled the mouse at the appropriate time and it was happy. I tried to select a Logitech mouse on the second boot and doomed that run (mouse cursor frozen at the bottom of the screen until reboot). The third time through I mouse-jiggled, clicked buttons and used the wheel... It didn't see the mouse, non graphical. On the 4th try everything finally cooperated and the rest of the install went fine - I was kinda bummed I couldn't have it install ReiserFS but there's a boot image downloadable that supports it - I may try that later on today if my "undisturbed computer time" holds out :-) :-) One very minor annoyance. It has an entry for 'Logitech iTouch' keyboard, but still doesn't seem to know about 'cordless wheel mouse'. I used 'generic 3-button'. FWIW, I booted from the ISO CD on a box at work and everything ran flawlessly. Maybe Redhat's trying to emulate the famous Microsoft Code-that-executes-differently-every-time technology?
