nellie2 Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 Eventually you will see this screen, your installation is now complete. Remove your CD rom from the drive and click nextYour system will reboot, if you also have windows loaded and you configured the DOS to be the default O/S during the installation of Redhat then you will have the option to boot from DOS or Redhat, not just Redhat as shown in the pic below. Use your arrow key to select Redhat and press enter.As Redhat is loading for the first time you will see it doing all sorts of interesting things. If you really want time to check this out then press EscFinally you will see your Redhat desktop......... enjoy!Part 1Part 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted April 10, 2004 Report Share Posted April 10, 2004 Andy Don't worry I had the same problem and can say I fixed it.Now do you have a TFT with it being connected with the DVI connection?If you do connect it with the DSUB connection = thats what did it for me.Hopefully you have DSUB.
