For the CDROM: I had the same problem two days ago (I just installed RedHat 5.1). Although I installed it from the CD-ROM, the "default" kernel doesn't recognize the iso9660 filesystem. The way I solved the problem was to recompile the kernel. The easiest way to do this was to make xconfig - if you have X Window running (else use 'make menuconfig' or 'make config'). Be sure to specify that you want iso9660 "support". Anyway, you really should read the Kernel-HOWTO (which should be with your other docs or see http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/Kernel-HOWTO.html ) before recompilling it. The same may apply to the other OS disks... For the screen resolution under X: Have you tried running XF86Setup? Just make sure to backup the XF86Config file, 'cause it took me a while to get any kind of resolution at all to function under X. Have fun.
