    Bit more information would be useful, how much memory do you have and did you press enter?

    The CD may be bad. This is a common problem. If you downloaded the CD's did you do a md5checksum?

    Easy on the thread subject line there, partner: 1) it's not descriptive; 2) I'm sure you are not really a moron (we all have our days).

    I just want to point out that Red Hat end-of-lifed Red Hat Linux 9 quite awhile ago.

    I'd focus on a newer release - RHEL or maybe CentOS, depending on your needs. Especially for a laptop.
