I am running Win2K and I have all 3 redhat 7.3 cd's that I made. My bios is set to boot from CD, but when I do it just gives me the option of either staring Win2k or DOS. How do I get the Linux setup?
 
There is no files on there for a boot disk that I can find. I says it should just boot from the CD, and that after I put it in it should come to a screen with a boot: prompt, but it doesn't. It just ask whether to boot Win2k or DOS.
 
you do not need to make installation disks for redhat.

make sure the CDRom is the First boot device .. and when it prompts you press enter to boot from cd then press enter. (you way want to disable second third etc boot devices.

Also the First cd SHOULD have the images to make floppies. If you do not have a bootable cdrom. (i on the other hand do not install floppy drives on my systems. so i KNOW you can do it by booting the CD)
