    Hi and Welcome !

    Which version of RedHat/Fedora are you using? Does your machine has internet access?
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Its a bit tough to install packages without internet access. You will face a lot dependency problems and have to download/install every dependent package first. Search for inted rpm and install it before installing bootp.
