	I experienced 7.3 problem on compaq proliant 1850R. it will hang 
at anaconda probing after video/monitor. 7.2/7.1 runs w/o a hitch.  This 
is not directly relavant to your Maxtor problem, but my solution may.

	What I ended up doing is, put 7.2 on it, then did 'rpm -Fvh 
--nodeps *.386.rpm *.noarch.rpm' for each of the three installation CDs.
Make sure your lilo or grub is in place properly.
