Are you sure that the optical drive on the server is OK? Those times for postselection (tens of minutes) smell like slow hardware [microcode] recovery for seek errors. Transfer the DVD to a USB2.0 flash memory device, boot the netinstall CD with extra parameter 'askmethod', choose local harddrive, and select the flash memory partition as the source of the Fedora 13 tree. Postselection should take less than one minute. -- -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
