If you can't read the CD and you have a 2nd computer you can try to do
a net-install over ethernet or even PLIP (parallel port). I did a PLIP
net-install of RH to my laptop before I had any other sort of
networking set up.
Just mount the CD on the existing machine and export via NFS or
do an FTP install.
