Description Chris Morgan 2001-01-22 04:16:33 UTC
Here is a dump taken durring an install of Red Hat 7.
I downloaded the ISO off of the Red Hat Primary FTP server about
3 days ago.

My system is a homemade highly integrated piece of crap, but
I am 100% confident that the hardware is in good working order.
It is an intel 810 chipset motherboard made by PCChips, with
an Intel Celeron 533 processor (PPGA), a 20 gig hard drive with a 7gig
fat32 windows ME partition.  It has a pctel onboard modem, davicom on
board nic, cmi8738 onboard sound, and onboard i810 video.  Red Hat 6.1 
installs okay, but needs drivers for all the hardware (which i have got
working in 6.1) I am just trying to get red hat 7 working, that's all.
Also, an upgrade or fresh install doesn't work.

You are getting read errors from your CDs. The CDs may be bad, or the CDROM
drive be having problems.
