You can't read a DVD with a CD ROM ---------------------------------------------------- Sorry again for the broken mailer... Basically what he is saying is that he has no idea what the difference is between a CD and a DVD, which is SOMEHOW a fault of Linux. Note to Moonshine: Download one of the live CDs and install from there. You *DO NOT* own a DVD-ROM drive and therefore CANNOT use the DVD to install Fedora 7. This is *NOT* a fault of Linux. Rather it is a fault of you not knowing what hardware that you have and downloading the inappropriate media ISO. Conversely, you can go buy a DVD-ROM drive and install it. Either way, this is a failure on *YOUR* end, *NOT* a failure of Fedora 7 nor a failure of Linux in general. Blaming Linux for a problem caused by your hardware is like a drunk driver blaming the booze for crashing his car. ----------------------------------------------------- -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
