Hi,

I'm trying to install the latest Redhat release on my system which consists
of an Endeavor motherboard, a Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM 3401, 2 EIDE disks, 
1 SCSI disk, and Tyan Yorktown SCSI adapter. The motherboard supports
2 EIDE interfaces; each of which has an 1Gig EIDE disk. I installed
DOS/Win, OS2 on the disk mounted on the primary EIDE interface. The
EIDE on the secondary interface is devoted to Linux. At the end of
the installation it claims it cannot write to the MBR or the first
sector of boot partition. Do you have any ideas?

Andy
