1. Install RHEL 6.x
2. Disable nouveau kernel driver (It is inbox video driver)
1) echo "blacklist nouveau options nouveau modeset=0" > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
2) vim /etc/grub.conf
- Add rdblacklist=nouveau at the end of the kernel line for nomodeset
참고.
nouveau kernel driver 를 비활성화 하지 않으면, Nvidia Driver 설치 시 오류가 발생한다.
OS 설치 시 Basic Video Driver 설치를 통해 회피할 수 있다.
임의로 blacklist 파일을 생성하지 않아도 자동으로 생성해 준다.
하지만, 관리 편의를 위해서는 직접 생성해 두는 것이 좋겠다.

- Installation instructions: Once you have downloaded the driver, change to the directory containing the driver package and install the driver by running, as root, sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-352.30.run
- One of the last installation steps will offer to update your X configuration file. Either accept that offer, edit your X configuration file manually so that the NVIDIA X driver will be used, or run nvidia-xconfig
