work-around for Red Hat 7.3 on ze4101

I have found that the default installation of Red Hat 7.3 won't work on the Pavilion ze4101.

For installation, the work-around is to pass a parameter to the installation kernel at the first menu...

boot: linux nopcmcia

The installation will complete no rmally with all the default values set during the graphic setup screens.

Then I found that there is a machine check (non-fatal) from the hard-disk startup. Again, a parameter can be passed to the kernel...

boot: linux nomce
