I am installing Redhat 9.0 on an 800MB Flash Disk (laptop drive). The 
computer (a Pentium) I want the OS installed on won't recognize any 
CD-ROM's I attach to it so I am installing the OS on another computer (a 
Celeron) and then transferring the disk to the Pentium Computer. After 
the grub screen appears I hit enter and then the computer reboots.

I have also tried doing this with RH7.3 and RH7.0. RH7.0 will start the 
boot process, but after unpacking the kernel and detecting some of the 
hardware yields a kernel error that it couldn't mount the root file 
system. RH7.3 just stalls during the boot process without giving an 
error. I have also installed Windows 98 on the drive and put it in the 
Pentium computer (doing the install on the Celeron) and it booted just 
fine. I'm not sure if this indicates a hardware issue (flash drive) or a 
kernel issue since I am moving the kernel from one configuration 
(Celeron) to another (Pentium).

Any Thoughts?

Thanks,
