Shalom,

What kind of hardware are we talking about. RHEL4 might not support it.

It could be the CD reader in the target system.

Trying new install media is still an option, the media could be on the edge, not quite good enough.

There are some error consoles you can consult for diagnostic informay ion

ctrl-alt-1
ctral-alt2

Also 3 and 4.

They might show you exactly why the install failed.

Hi Blu,
Why Dont you try with the text mode installation aka "linux text".
with text install you can boot up the system to GUI at the end.

Any way it can be a problem with kernel update that your media have.

I recommend you to use RHEL 4.6 install media.
I have installed this update on many systems with out any issues.

Good Luck...!
