Hi

Linux be default should have most of the drivers if you are using the latest update version, if not other things you can do is to do the install in text mode or find the correct driver for the display adapter and provide it during install.

the display controller is from intel and they give drivers only for 2.4.20 onwards,to install this kernel, i need to upgrade the GLIBC also, which i cannot do because of the project specific requirements.
