Dell Vostro 400 and Centos 5.1

If you have a single drive Centos 5.1 will not install until you go into the BIOS and set it up to use RAID mode.. for some reason in IDE mode it pukes loading the ata_piix drivers.

It also would only install in text mode, it didn't like the 128MB NVIDIA GeForce 8300GS DVI/VGA that was on the system it seems, it failed to setup X so I had to download the nvidia driver and install that before I could get a gui up and running
