installation problems on a multia

hey there, im trying to get redhat 6.2 running on my multia. this is a basic
multia setup, but its all basically never used hardware (ruling out the heat
death). ive got an external scsi hard drive/cdrom that im trying to install
to/with. here is my problem:
everything boots fine, but the install program dies with the error "unable to
load second stage ramdisk". ive tried the install via cdrom (many many times),
local image, http, and ftp from 4 different sources. this is unbeleivably
discouraging, and i am very new to the alpha architecture, so it is likely that
im doing something wrong, i just dont know what.
hopefully someone has had this problem and knows a solution, as i have tried
everything that makes sense to me. any help would be very appreciated.

thanks,
brad

ps, sorry if this message hits the list twice.
