Hi,

Being new to sparcs (but a long user of RedHat on intel) I need a little
help please.  I have a Sparc Station 5 which I need to get RedHat 6.2
onto so I can do some BigEndian testing.

I get through most of the install with no problems, but when the
shadow-utils package is about to be installed the machine just hangs??? 
This is the second CD I've tried so I don't think it's that.

Has anyone else had this problem?  Is there a fix?

Many thanks,

Dan.
