Tried it and it didn't work.  It stops sending output to the
screen just after the Master Boot Record is read.  There
is something in the kernel that needs to know to send the
screen output to the PCI graphics board.  The old redhat
dist. manages to make it work, but the Suse 8.1 doesn't
figure it out, and any install doesn't figure it out.

What could be in the redhat 6x install kernel that isn't
in the others?
