Hi, I recently tried to install Red Hat on one of my partitions. In the very beginning of the installation, the computer could not read keyboard/mouse instructions. It says something to the effect of "press here to install", yet it does not read inputs. I tried connecting a second keyboard yet to no avail. I even reformatted previous partitions and tried to install Red Hat first, yet it still did not read keyboard/mouse inputs. There is no problem installing Mandrake, yet I would much rather use Red Hat.

I had no problems installing Red Hat on my P4; only the laptop is having problems. Does anyone have a clue as to what the problem is?
