Can you look on VC4 and see if there are any error messages?

Comment 3 Randy Reitz 2001-08-23 03:21:15 UTC
I reproduced the problem (today, 8/22/2001) and looked at virtual console 4.  I 
found error messages from the CD-ROM drive:
<4>hdb: drive not ready for command
<4>hdb: status error: status=0xff{Busy}
<4>hdb: drive not ready for command
<4>hdb: ATAP reset complete
<4>hdb: status timeout: status=0xff {Busy}
<4>end_request: I/O error, dev03:40 (hdb), sector 1056428

I had another CD-ROM laying around so I swaped the drives.  The 7.0->7.1 
upgrade completed successfully.

Please close this bug report.  Thanks for your help.

Ok.  Looks like a bad cd.  We get so many reports of bad cd's.  Glad things are
working now.  Have fun.
