why is this happening and how do i stop it

Also can someone give me the steps to install this OS (like a fresh install/booting from cd)...just so i'm not doing any wrong

Hello and Welcome.
I'm not certain why you are getting the error but it's the Anaconda installer that's crashing, it could be a bug. Any reason why you're using RH6? It's very old and unsupported.

[elf2000]

yeah i know it's pretty old...and maybe the reason for the error....but i must use this version 6x

Try 6.4 or something else, it might work better. Did you verify the downloaded iso with md5sum check?

[elf2000]

no i guess i haven't...will check it....and try 6.4

A bad download can cause all kinds of foolishness in all kinds of different ways. It's always a good idea to check your downloads.

Did you consider using vmware?

[elf2000]

I tried installing vmware but i get a grayed out box that stay that way forever....futher i don't believe it would've mad a difference since i found out that REDhat 6.2 dosen't work with Pentium 4 or newer AMD processors.....now to respond to Miketbob the iso checkout with md5sum.
Anyway, so i installed redhat 7.0 now my issue is when i boot up i am going into command line, how do i get out and into a Graphical User interface where i can actually c my desktop?
the process looks like this when i boot
