Comments/Problems:
unable to install boot loader.
neither lilo nor grub worked. seemed either to be dependency problems
or errors finding the harddisks.
i was able to install grub partly so the system would use grub as boot
loader, but it started up with errors.
trying to use redhat9 rescue disk to reconfigure grub and reinstall it
also failed, as it was unable allocate the harddrives.
