Hi,
Do you have the autofs or the amd running (sometimes they are a pain in

Ctrl-Alt-F3 and -F4, but the information they show doesn't mean much to
me.
The Ctrl-Alt-F3 screen ends with:

Burn a new CD, or buy one?
You should be able to copy the existing CD to your HD and change the
file name name and re-burn it, at least I think it would work.
This will work a lot better if you can burn it from Linux 'cause
Windows tries to "smart" about short file names for compatibility with

Ok, I give up! I've NEVER had this much trouble installing ANY Linux
