Sorry, not too sure what your problem is, but RH5.2 is very old. Maybe try a newer version/distro. RH is upto 7.2 now

I've got a boxed version of RH7.1 with all 7 CD's/Installation manual/Getting Started manual and boot disk if you want it?

If the distro and version is older than the hardware, then you can be sure to have problems getting it installed.

Your hardware should be able to support most if not all of the newer distro versions.
