You can try boot images and update disks that should work with the 
official Red Hat CDs. You need to create a bootable floppy using one of 
the image files at:
http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/images-0.7.0/
The updates are in the form of a tar file. Format the disk with 
mke2fs -m0 /dev/fd0, copy the tarball to the disk, and untar it. The 
tarfile is here:
http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/updates-v0.7.0.tar

Boot from the floppy, and at the syslinux prompt, enter:
linux updates
You can limit the RAM available to the installer by specifying it on the 
same line, for example:
linux updates mem=12M
You'll be prompted to insert the updates disk when it is required.

Have fun, and let us know if you need more info,
