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

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....
