I was seeing the same thing. Bummer! Can you mount a dvd player across the network? Can you do a local net install? You setup exported directory on another machine where you leave the iso and then boot and run net install. - Export a NFS dir. - Place the Fedora dvd image in the exported directory. - Check the permissions. - Extract, burn and boot from boot.iso inside the fedora dvd image. - Use the ‘linux text’ and ‘linux askmethod’ parameters. - Choose the NFS option and fill-in the server and directory fields. -- (623)239-3392 (503)754-4452 www.obnosis.com --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
