I've been trying to install Redhat 7.0 for use with Mysql and Apache and keep having
little glitches
in starting services and
trying to run linuxconf - It just seems really unstable - Does the gcc-2.96 compiler
matter when
installing the OS, Mysql and Apache??

Quite frankly, anybody who uses RedHat 7.0 and their broken compiler
for _anything_ is going to have trouble.
I don't know why RH decided to do their idiotic gcc-2.96 release (it
certainly wasn't approved by any technical gcc people - the gcc
people were upset about it too), and I find it even more surprising
that they apparently KNEW that the compiler they were using was
completely broken. They included another (non-broken) compiler, and
called it "kgcc".
