This is because my Nvidia GeForce 2 MX video card is not supported by the drivers on the install cd, so I have to install the drivers myself if I want to use a desktop environment.

And another thing, how can I download the drivers and install them if I don't have an X Window Server configured?
You should still be able to use the basic svga x server to start your x session. You will not get all the performance out of your card, like opengl, but it will still work.
You can download the drivers a few ways. If you know how to use lynx then you can browse straight to the site and download them through lynx. You can also ftp through your shell to the nvidia ftp server, which is ftp1.detonator.nvidia.com.
Figuring out which kernel you are using is kind of a no brainer =) How many processors do you have in your machine? If you answered 1 then you would want the "UNI", uni meaning 1, processor driver. If you have more then 1 processor you would want the SMP, Symmetric Multi-Processor. So I think you can answer that one yourself =)

This is rediciulous. I have an IDE ATAPI hard drive with 6 gigs of unallocated free space and a separate FAT32 partition which is currently running Windows. I have even gone so far as to create the Linux ext2 and swap partitions before I install, but nothing I have tried has worked. What can I do?
What kind of IDE controller are you using. I think that RH7 uses the 2.2 kernel. It doesn't have support for alot of ata100 controllers right out of the box. There is a way to get it to be recognized by going into rescue mode, before actuall installation, and configuring your controller. I am sure you can find this information on the RH site easily, or even the mandrake site.

NAME
podulebus -- Acorn Expansion Card bus driver SYNOPSIS
podulebus0 at ioc0 bank 4 (NetBSD/acorn26) podulebus0 at root (NetBSD/acorn32) DESCRIPTION
The podulebus driver handles the expansion-card interface in Archimedes machines and their successors. This includes conventional expansion cards, mini expansion cards (as introduced in the A3000), network expansion cards (as introduced in the A3020), DEBI expansion cards (as introduced in the Risc PC), and Mk II network cards (also introduced in the Risc PC). Drivers for individual cards attach as children of the podulebus device. NetBSD includes several machine-independent expansion card device drivers. There are also some device drivers which are specific to NetBSD/acorn26 or NetBSD/acorn32. HARDWARE
The following devices are supported by NetBSD. SCSI interfaces asc Acorn AKA30, AKA31, and AKA32 SCSI expansion cards (NetBSD/acorn32). cosc MCS Connect32 SCSI interface (NetBSD/acorn32). csa Cumana 8-bit SCSI interface (NetBSD/acorn32). csc Cumana 16-bit SCSI interface (NetBSD/acorn32). hcsc HCCS 8-bit SCSI interface. oak Oak SCSI interface. ptsc Powertec SCSI interface (NetBSD/acorn32). sec Acorn AKA30, AKA31, and AKA32 SCSI expansion cards.
