It doesn't matter whether I just press Enter at the first prompt or use linux mediacheck or any other option. Only memtest86 works. I use the DVD i386 image, the md5sum is right, I burned it with Nero on a Win machine. The FC2 DVD image burned the same way was installable without problems back then. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert DVD and reboot 2. At the prompt try "linux" with or without any options Actual Results: Error: isolinux: Disk error 32, AX=4280, drive 9F Boot failed: press a key to retry... Expected Results: Installation should start. Additional info:
Can you see if there's an updated bios for your machine? This is usually caused by BIOS bugs
It's a K7S6A REV 1.0 Elitegroup board. BIOS version is 1.0d. (So that others having this board find this bug.) Installing from the CD images works. What is the cause that it doesn't work anymore with DVD images when it worked with FC2? Anyway I'll try updating my BIOS and report back with results afterwards.
I had this problem too and googled for it. The usual cause of the problem is that the DVD was burned too quickly and there are small errors in it. I reburned mine at 4x and it worked fine.
No response from reporter, closing. If this happens on FC4 or FC5, please reopen.
