Jim, Barry, I thought I had burned the iso to the disk correctly, but I'll go back and check. I used k3b for the first time on this (I used to use xcdroast). Ahh... I just checked. I did manage to burn it as a file. Crap. I didn't think to check that. Sigh... Long night. Thanks! Jeff
Make sure you used the "Burn CD Image" option in your cd burning software. If you did just a regular cd burn, like if you were simply copying data files from your hard drive, then you didn't creat the cd's correctly. There's always the chance unfortunately, that the image file for cd 1 could be corrupt. First try putting the cd in a machine that's already up and running. It can even be a windows based machine. Open the cd drive up through "My Computer", If it shows a file named CentOS 1of4bin.iso(That file name isn't exact, but it's close.), then you didn't use the "Burn CD Image" option. Hope this helps.

I have a new machine with an MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard (ATI Xpress200 chipset) and a Hammer DVD Writer (shows up as a Matshita DVD-RAM SW-9585). Anyway, I downloaded the CentOS 4.3 iso's and burned them to CD. When I boot the new machine it says: Boot CD: DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER I've _never_ seen this error message before. I know this is a RTFM kind of question, but I don't have any idea right now. Any ideas? TIA!
