Well I have had the same problem with my 7.2. I know its not defective CD's
though, the error is on different packages everytime and I have 3 different
sets of 7.2 CDs, the complete from walmart, two cd set from cheapbytes and the
deluxe 7 cd set from staples and I always get the same thing, some error
ocoured installing some package or other.
CD-Rom is not defective becuase 7.1 and Redhat will install with no errors.
Also tried with pre-exsiting partions without partitions, even unhooked and
replaced my LS-120 with a normal floppy think that might be the problem with
not being able to record cds in 7.2, but it still won't work.
I gave up, tired of setting up 7.1 again and again, hopefully the newer
versions of Mandrake install better.
