I recently tried to install RHEL 5.3 onto the server that had previously Windows. Upon installing, rebooting my machine it was missing the operating system. Tried to install again and I got this error: input/output error during read on dev/cciss/c0d0.
I have used two copies of the RHEL 5.3 CDs and my machine still misses an operating system. Would anyone be kind enough to give me a solution?

It sounds like you didn't install GRUB properly. I have minimal experience with Redhat, but it appears this fixes the problem. Can you boot from the RHEL disk and chose "rescue", then run these commands:root (hdx,y)setup (hd0)
