Dear Vinayak,
The Red Hat 9 will not detect if the bios has your drive as SATA- raid ,
which is probably the case. Can't you try RHE instead or I generally use
slackware, with wchich I usually have no probs ata all. Sorry for the incorrect
input last mail.

Dear Vinayak,
What are the conf for the xorg conf file? The video card can best be changed,
see http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=480441 for a ;
similar bad experience with this card. You can also follow this thread to see
if it gets resolved, it already did partially by getting up a 2d display rather
than a 3-d.So, you can install perhaps in text mode and then edit the x conf.
Reg hard drives not found , maybe you had it searching for IDE HDD instead of
SATA. Also , further you can try reformatting from the end of free space rather
than the start of free space, sometimes that may sort out HDD install troubles.
Warm Regards

Dear Luggies,
I am trying to install linux in a machine which has the following
configuration:
Pentium 4 3.06 Ghz
512 Mb Ram
80 Gb Sata Hard disk
ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Display Adapter.
When I try installing FC 5 on this machine the screen gets filled up
with colour grains. This happens when the graphical interface for the
installation starts.
I tried installing Red Hat 9 it gave a message saying no hard drives
found in the machine.
What could be the problem
Thanks and Regards
