Sorry....I was under the impression that you never "named" another distro on a different mailing list....the distro is Red Hat Enterprise Linux......I downloaded the ISO from a mirror site and assumed it would install just like Scientific /CEntOS.....but its totally different....I guess if the only way to get it to work is to sign up for the RHN support I might have to just let it go....
