redhat 7.0 boot hang issue



If that system has either an external SCSI or USB, you can get an external 
drive. The problem is booting. Systems die for many reasons. Even if the 
system was not intruded, things can happen to make it unbootable.  I assume 
that your system is SCSI, so if you get an external SCSI CD ROM, you should 
be able to boot from it. I gave my external CD ROM to John Abreau. You 
might be able to hire him to fix your problem.
