It's a laptop, and I don't have another drive. I will have to look
around at work and try to find one that fits.

I have been trying to installing MDK10 on my inspiron 8500. Things go
fine except when it asks for the second cd. It will tell me that it
is not found, once I put it in of course. I thought it was just a bad
cd, so I burnt another one same problem. I have also tried different
distro's they all have problems when I asked to switch cd's. I have
also tried burning the cd's using a different burner. Any ideas?
The only distro I have had luck with was a Fedora boot DVD (didn't
need to switch disks and it worked).

Hi Jeb
I am really new with Linux stuff; just divorced Microsoft last week; but
I noticed your post seemed similar to a problem that I had a few times.
I changed CD ROM Drives, and had no problems after that with some discs
being accepted, and others not. If the drive hardware is defective, in
some cases, it will do just what you described. I don't know why; I
just had this happen to me. Have you thought about trying a different
CD Drive in your computer?
