well, i thought it not unreasonable, since i already had
the disks, was running rh9.0 on two other machines, and
had not yet looked into fedora or acquired any iso's.

do you think getting the fedora iso's will improve this
puzzling situation?  i guess i'm willing to try, but it
doesn't seem likely.  anyway, i have found blu support
better than that from red hat.
