Hardware compatibility is particularly important if you have an older
system or a system that you may have built yourself. Red Hat Linux 7.0
should be compatible with most hardware in systems that were factory
built within the last two years. However, with hardware specifications
changing almost daily, it's hard to guarantee that your hardware will
be 100% compatible.
First, gather all the system hardware information you can; the
Official Red Hat Linux Reference Guide on the Documentation CD has
instructions in the Installation-Related
Reference (including instructions for Windows users) which
may assist you. In Chapter 4, a table is available for
you to fill out and reference during the installation.
Second, use Red Hat's online resources to make sure your hardware is
compatible and/or supported. The hardware compatibility list is
located at: http://www.redhat.com/hardware.
