[BRLTTY] rhmkiso issues for rhel4-u4

[Don Raikes]

Hi,

I was successful in installing rhel3-u4 and getting brltty 3.6.1 to run on it.

Now I want to upgrade (need to) to rhel4-u4.

I grabbed the boot.iso, and a copy of brltty-3.7.tar.gz and tried to make the brailleified boot cd, but got the following messages, and when I tried booting from the resulting cd, brltty never started.

My goal is to get rhel4-u4 installed with brltty running then build gnome 2.16 on it and hopefully get brltty working with orca and gnome 2.16 on rhel4.

This is a part of my accessibility testing of Oracle's products.
