Do you have more than one installed cd drive or a cd and dvd? I had to disconnect one of the drives because it couldn't make up its mind which drive the disc was in. (vs 7.2). 8.0 only worked from the DVD drive.
This is probably a shot in the dark for you, but I hope it is helpful Buck -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Michael Schwendt Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2003 9:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Burning CD's of 8.1 beta -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On Wed, 22 Jan 2003 23:05:46 -0500, Ric Tibbetts wrote: > All; > I've burned about a dozen coasters now.

When you burn the image to CD and the burnt CD passes the MD5 checksum or media-check, your problem is something else. Maybe you switched disc #2 and disc #2 or anything like that? Are you sure you really have the first three discs? ;) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+L/6Q0iMVcrivHFQRAgC8AJwLuiHQlbA7G57ZgPLACym2VCPiDQCfS/Mt vEYGTHFKFfSr3iRRW5JQWXc= =vfFB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
