Comment 1 Henrik Madsen 2001-02-28 17:02:54 UTC
Have also tried to use the anaconda update disk (RHBA-2000-084)

Still the same error

Comment 2 Michael Fulbright 2001-02-28 17:08:13 UTC
Check VC3 and VC$ (cntl-alt-f3 and -f4) and see if you are getting read errors.

I'm pretty sure your CD is bad.
