I went to RedHats' page and found hardware requirements and it said that the Dell Poweredge 6300 is a supported hardware. Then I went to linuxcare.com and it does not list the machine. Before I look like a buffoon, or continue to, Redhat will run on this machine, right? I appreciate the help.

Like a scalded dog. You just need to download the Linux driver disk so
that you can install onto the RAID controller. Should be on the Dell
site.

It really depends on the raid controller e.t.c. The poweredge (if I remember correctly) has 2 * Adaptec 7890 controllers and a 7860 (or 7880) which should be seen by a standard install disk. If you have a PERC or PERC2 raid controller, you may have problems, or need a special boot disk.
