This is almost certainly due to either a bad CD image or a problem with a CDROM drive. Does this happen to be a CD you burned yourself?
Yes, this is from a CD I burned myself. I used Adaptecs Easy CD Creator version 3.5c to burn the ISO images. Before burning the CD I ran the checksum against both ISO images and they matched up perfectly. I downloaded the ISO files from ftp.freesoftware.com. My system setup: PIII 500MHz 256 MB RAM Western Digital 20.5 GB hard drive Matshita LS-120 floppy drive LITEON CD-ROM LTN382 (This is the boot CD-ROM) Yamaha CRW8424E CD-ROM U.S. Robotics 56k Voice Winmodem U.S. Robotics 56k Fax/Data external modem ATI Rage 128 Magnum SD AGP video card Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live Value sound card Hewlett Packard DeskJet 810C printer The hard drive was a virgin install. I bought the drive so Red Hat could have its own hdd. Would you suggest making the Yamaha CD-RW drive the boot drive? Or do you suggest downloading the images files again from a different source?
I would suggest trying to get the ISO's from ftp.redhat.com and reburning them. There are lots of people who have seen this problem, all at different packages. All of them seem to have burned their own CDs. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 18031 ***
