First of all if that is ESDI as in PS/2 - by default redhat linux does
not support PS/2 Microchannel
There are patches for PS/2's I don't know the location right now
Also you will have to make a patches kernel and redhat boot disk from
another computer that is not a PS/2 or runs with kernel patch
hope this helps
