I've just installed Debian 2.1 on a Sony F-150 and it worked like a charm.
Only thing is that I needed to download a special Neomagic X server and I hadn't
done that yet. Took me about an hour most of it defragging the windows partition
in order to create the Linux partition. I did it during a flight back from the
U.S. to pass the time so I was watching the clock quite closely, as the battery
life dwindled away ;-)
I reckon RedHat should install just the same but I have no experience with
it.
That's my 5 pence,
Yuval
