I am Installing from Cd And The error message is "No hard drive found".
And My System Config is.
Intel 945 GNT
1gb Ram
2 SATA Hard drive (160,80) GB
Intel Pentium IV 3.0GHz Processor
I think Linux Enterprises Version 4 WS Supports Only ICH6 Controller.But In my mother Board It is ICH7 controller. Actually I need ICH7 Device Drive Which Is Specified In the RPM Which I Downloaded, but I don't Know How to Re-Compile The Kernel With New RPM.....
Is There Any Way To Get the Device Driver For ICH7 Controller.....
ICH7 Is Just Like IDE For SATA HardDisk....
This Is the Problem I encountered While Installing..........

Your right, these chipsets are not supported in your release. But it is supported in RHEL4 WS U2. You can't install the rpm until you have a working system.
Is it possible to install using the updated version, say like the one located here.
Also see the RedHat advisory here.
Note the section;
Quote:HP xw4300 workstations equipped with the ICH7 chipset will require initial installation through Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 2 media or the kernel will panic. It is possible to install this system with RHEL4 U0 media, then use the 'up2date' command to update the system to RHEL4 U2. However, this process may result in a kernel panic when booting to the new kernel. RHEL4 U2 updates support the ICH7 chipset and SATA devices and should be used during the primary install to avoid this issue.

I should have asked this before. What are you looking to do with RHEL? This is really an advanced distro for folks who have experience with Linux, who, say, want to administer a server. It is available for about $179 USD from RedHat. I have no idea where to get valid copies of this distro off the internet.
But, if you are new Linux user and are looking for a distro to use as a desktop, this is probably not what you want. In this case, Fedora Core 5 would be a better choice for you.
Let us know what you are exactly looking to do with Linux. We can go from there.
