Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2002-10-14 09:27:58 UTC 
These errors in the anaconda dump

<4>hdb: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
<4>hdb: ATAPI reset complete
<4>hdb: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
<4>hdb: ATAPI reset complete

implies that there were errors in reading from the CD that were not correctable.
 Please verify the integrity of the media.  Newer releases of Red Hat Linux have
additional code to try to work around these cases.
