I tried to install RHEL 4 on IBM Thinkpad R40e, but system hangs after probing devices and before starting the installation. I also tried RH 9 but it also hangs before starting installation. Same thing happened with Suse 10. I was successful in installing Mandrake 9.1 but the keyboard doesn't work. Please help me in installing RHEL 4 on laptop.

Thanks in advance.
