This happens both with upgrades and installation. After
inserting CD-ROM 2, nothing happens. At all. If I eject the CD
anaconda reports the following error output:

Traceback (innermost last):

If you mount the second CDROM and look at it does the gcc-java-2.96-54.i386.rpm
file exist?

This really sounds like either the CD is bad, or your CDROM drive doesn't like
reading it.

Also send me  the md5 sum of the gcc-java package  and I can see if it is
corrupt.

I tend to also believe that this is a problem with the CD-ROM. I've had problems
installing some RPM's from it manually, rpm -i simply hangs on the first
attempt, but sometimes finishes as supposed to second time I try it.

Be sure to use the binary ftp option.
