aic7890, rh 5.1 install problem

[Roddy McColl]

I have an ASUS P2B-S with the following devices (as reported by the
Adaptec BIOS):
  2 IBM DDRS 39130W (ULTRA2-SE) - on the Ultra 2 connector
  1 HP DAT drive C1533A (Fast/ULTRA-SE) on the wide connector

I have tried to use the rh 5.1 boot disks supplied by Tom Bylander
(bylander at trurl.cs.utsa.edu) (pre6) and by Felix
(felix at halef.rhrz.uni-bonn.de) and I find that I can get about 20-70
MB into the install from the (ATAPI) cd-rom when the following fatal error
is reported:

 error 2 reading header: No such file or directory
 install exited abnormally
 sending termination signals ... done
 sending kill signals ... done
 unmounting file systems ... done
 you may safely reboot your system

Has anyone seen and solved this problem? Any other suggestions?

TIA
