My experience with Redhat 5.2 FTP install using Thinkpad 560

[cyoung at bbnplanet.com (Chuck Young)]

In trying to get 15 machines up with 5.2 Red Hat, I found this same
problem with one install.  I was using another 5.2 machine as an FTP
server on the local wire.

I suspected the server was having trouble and rebooted it.  I restarted
the install and all went well.  I would recommend reinstalling (depending
on what packages failed) and would advise you to try running the
/usr/X11R6/bin applications Xconfigurator and XF86Setup (in order of
my personal preference) if you do not want to reinstall.
