Hi Randy,
Problem solved by taking following steps
1) Download the first disc of RH7.3 ISO image and burn a CD
2) With the CD to start RH7.3 but on Init2 (Text-Mode) only. .
3) /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 corrupted. Copy XF86Config-4 file from K12OSN
and paste the file on RH7.3 (Remark: I have K12OSN on this PC also
running RH7.3 (on a mobile disk))
Now my RH7.3 box revives. Without RH7.3 CD to start the PC I am not
allowed to make any change on /etc/X11/XFConfig-4
Anyway lot of thanks for you and other folks on this list giving me your
assistance in the past and time spent.
B.Regards
Stephen
