Dear Stefan, Last night I have accidents same as you, while taking the virtual ISO image CD-ROM to install FC4T1 into VMware 5.0.0 set on w2k. Using CD-ROM burned on FC3 whitch expand image to each directry, same results this morning. Ever I used usualy text mode installation(linux text) at FC3 , so adopt text mode installation at FC4T1 instllation. Someone say not use text mode installation, no problem happen with graphic mode installation, try it.
