Hello all,

Has anyone successfully installed RH Linux 8.0 into a Dell Optiplex GXMT 5166 computer? I've tried to but the install hangs after about 2 hours into it. Perhaps the video driver isn't supported(S3 Trio64v+)? If anyone has, can they give me some instructions on how to successfully do so? This is my first foray into Linux.

Thanks,
Jisoo22

If it's the video, I'd try installing in text mode then setting up the XServer later.
