I've had that symptom before and it was a bad iso burned cd on the second cd. I think that is why Redhat install now asks to check the cd before install. I would suggest running the check on all three cd before starting the install. Common sense says that if one disk reads and another doesn't then it's more like the second disk than the drive.

Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hey y'all, I'm considering doing a fresh Linux install (my current system is SuSE 7.2, which was installed almost 2 years ago, and upgraded 1 year ago to SuSE 7.3 ). Who has run Gentoo, and what are your thoughts about it? Mostly I want to hear from those who have been running Linux for a couple of years or more... the opinion of a newbie ("I just dual-booted my Windoze XP box last week, and Gentoo is great!") doesn't really interest me --- no offense, mind you --- I simply want a seasoned evaluation:-) To give you an idea of where I'm coming from, I also use NetBSD, and always compile apps instead of "pkg_add ftp://path/to/binary";. Since Gentoo's portage is taken from BSD ports, I'm interested in whether Gentoo will give me any justice.
