Description Audrius Meskauskas 2008-02-10 09:21:19 UTC 
The Windows versions with service packs need to access the installation CD one 
more time after rebooting. This is currently only possible by writing the 
installation configuration tile with text editor and one may previously find 
the solution of this problem in the Knowledge Base.

The workaround of this problem is described in 
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_108_10987.shtm


Actual behaviour:
The installation crashes, you go into Knowedege Base, find the problem, hack 
the installation file and then it works.

Expected behaviour:
The virtual machine can reboot if it needs and still has access to the 
installation image/CD ROM in the same virtual location where it was from 
beginning. If needed, the user can unmount the installation media later.

This was fixed in 5.3. Closing as CURRENTRELEASE.
