Normal you make yourself a pair of boot and supp disk taken from the
image
directory. You download the boot.img and supp.img file and write them
to
3.5" floppy using dd (Linux) or rawrite.exe for DOS.
You boot of the "boot" disk and installation is easy and interactive.
Be
sure to install via FTP and specify no further than the
/pub/linux/redhat/redhat-5.2/i386 directory.
It'll take all night to install all packages. It's pretty neat though.
