I've had problems installing Linux on a Samsung CDRW. I'd suggest making the DVD the master and booting off that. (I had to disable my cdrw to install linux from my cdrom on my own system). Hope that helps.

Regardless as to the installation method (X or text), the install process quits as it starts to install packages with the following error.... "install terminated abnormally - received signal 11" I'm stuck, I know that the CDs are OK - they were used on anthoer box a few days ago. It seems to be accessing the HDD OK - I booted with a CD distro and mounted the filesystem and could see the temporary install image. I looked at the logs and it didnt have any info. Ive read on a forum that the error is sometimes down to bad RAM - i dont think thats my prob, i had WinXP running no problems. Here's my system: Athlon XP 1800+ Gigabyte GA7XTVE Mobo with latest Award BIOS 1GB DDR 2700 RAM MSI Geforce 4Ti4200 Realtek NIC Creative SB Live 5.1 Player 30GB Western Digital HDD (hda) 60 Maxtor HDD (hdb) TV Tuner card - PCI, not sure of make/model Creative 5x DVD Samsung 52x CDRW (being used for install) Any suggestions? If not, I'll have to go back to Windoze :( Thanks, Jeff -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list NNC's UK Operating Companies : NNC Holdings Limited (no. 3725076), NNC Limited (no. 1120437), National Nuclear Corporation Limited (no. 2290928), STATS-NNC Limited (no. 4339062) and Technica-NNC Limited (no. 235856).
