Sounds like exactly the problem I just went thru w/ my
P133. Of all the bizarre things, it ended up being that
the hard drive shortly thereafter started 'klunking' and
went bad. Replaced the HD, and no problems since.

It sounds like the install program isn't finding your
cd-rom. You may have
to tell linux where your cd-rom is. At install it's
something like hdc=cd
(changes based on the cd-rom drive you have). I had to do
this once a year
or as ago. Check redhat.com for the correct syntax. Hope
this helps
