RE: Problem with a custom Redhat DVD and Anaconda

Hi Paul,

Unfortunately I do not see any error messages other than "I could not
find a Red Hat Linux Advanced Server CDROM in any of your CDROM drives.
Please insert the Redhat CD and press "OK" to retry."  Is there a way to
turn on some verbose?

I did not personally create the original Redhat DVD so I do not know how
it was done.  I assumed it was done correctly because it appears to work
fine.  I will try to generate my own DVD and then modify it.

What I can't understand is why I am able to mount the DVD drive
everything and Anaconda cannot do it automatically.  I looked at the
Anaconda source code and can't find the script/program that actually
does.  Can you point me in the right direction?

Chris

Sounds a bit round-a-bout.  It'd be helpful if you gave exact error
messages.

There are DVD generation scripts for RHEL/Fedora here:
