Help!

During my install of Red Hat Linux 7.1, Workstation, I got an error message from the install program stating that the kernel had not been copied correctly, and to use a startup disk to correct the problem. The dilemma is that there was no startup disk created, because the invalid kernel wouldn't let me make one!

How do I fix the kernel? Run install again? Or can I copy it from the CD, if so, where do I put it, and is there anything I need to do to 'activate' it? (new to linux)

Anyone have a useful suggestion?

Thanks.
