Take the initrd.img and vmlinuz files from the images/pxeboot directory of your install media and copy them to /boot of your Red Hat 9 installation. If you have no separate /boot partition, add the following entry to your /etc/grub.conf: title Fedora Core Install/Upgrade root (hd0,0) <- use the same value here as for your existing entries kernel /boot/vmlinuz ramdisk_size=8192 initrd /boot/initrd.img If you have a separate /boot partition, add the following entry to your /etc/grub.conf: title Fedora Core Install/Upgrade root (hd0,0) <- use the same value here as for your existing entries kernel /vmlinuz ramdisk_size=8192 initrd /initrd.img Then, reboot and you should be able to boot into the installer.
