RHEL4 Installation problem on hp rx2620 server
Hi everyone,

Here is a problem I am having regarding installation of RHEL4 update 6 on HP integrity server rx2620: as below

Starting:Internal Bootable DVD Starting: Internal Bootable DVD

ELILO boot:Uncompressing linux......done ELILO boot: Uncompressing linux ...... done
Loading initrd initrd.img.....done Loading initrd initrd.img ..... done

Then do not move.

I found below error in the syslog.
(During installation ctrl+alt+(+f3+f4) opened new terminal which showed progress of install process( also bash terminal (Ctl+atl+f2))

error 2 reading header: cpio: Bad magic
Unable to load NLS charset utf8
ISO 9660 extensions:RRIP_1991A
Unable to identify CD-ROM format.

These error indicate that their is something wrong with the CD-ROM, (but it is working fine in windows, I could read and copy the data from CD-ROM in windows).

Help me to solve the problem

First you may pl go to EFI Shell then
see and type the following:
EFI Shell>conconf

select and set Primary to VGA console
then reboot or back to Boot Maintenance menu
try to install from DVD-boot again & install
