Can't I install RedHat 5.1 from FAT32 drive? I have downloaded RedHat 5.1 to my FAT32 drive and when I begin installation and it asks: "What partition and directory on that partition hold the RedHat/RPMS and RedHat/base dircetories?" it only show /dev/hda3 which is my Linux partition (/dev/hda1 is my FAT32 partition which holds RedHat 5.1). So can't I install RedHat 5.1 from FAT32 drive? If not, what should I do then? Jani Koskinen duckie@sci.fi

I installed Slakware from a FAT partition (about a year ago).
I think you have to specify which directory you have kept everything
in. e.g /dev/hda1/slakware (or perhaps /dev/hda3/redhat in your case).
I have never used Redhat though.

Nothing but Win '95 or Win '98 can read FAT32.

Kernel 2.0.35 is able to read vfat32 as well as jolliet-CD's. There is no option for one of them in the kernel-config, but vfat includes fvat32 and iso9660 includes jolliet.
