When I started up RedHat 6.2 installer with the floppy which was attached to the package, the installer stopped with the message as follows; boot:[ENTER] Loading Boot failed:please change disks and press a key to continue There are no other disks to proceed the installation. In fact, if I use CD-ROM to boot the installer, it worked fine. After the installation (with CD-ROM), I checked floppy device by mounting some floppy disks, and it worked fine. I suspended that it might be a error of boot.img that I got, so I made another boot floppy by boot.img in the CD-ROM; it caused the same error as before. I downloaded boot.img from the following URL and made another floppy. http://www.redhat.com/jp/support/errata/RHBA-2000010-01.html but it changed nothing. My machine is COMPAQ presario 3571 Please let me know what can cause this. Thanks

This is most certainly a bad floppy drive, controller, or media. The boot image the CDROM uses to boot is practically identical to the floppy image.
