Are you sure the CD is configured as hdd? Is the CD (not the player, the disk) OK? Is it a "true" CD or a CD-R? Some CD-ROM's have difficulties at reading CD-R's. Anyway, this is *definetely* a hardware-related problem; I'd bet on the CD media being defective. If the CD-ROM s configured as hdd but there is nothing as hdc, you may consider changing that, putting the CD-ROM as hdc (these kind of thing vary greatly depending on the hardware, BIOS, motherboard etc). > He decidido instalar LINUX porque tengo buenas referencias de este > S.O., pero como empecemos asi con la instalacion, lo mando al carajo. Take it easy, man! If you come from a Windows-like background, linux takes a lot getting used to. And you will, now and then, face problems, specially during the initial installation, when not everything is correctly configured yet.
