Hey,
has anyone actually installed the redhat 8.0 discs I burnt for them? I
just picked up a new machine, so I thought I would give it a try. Here's
my experiences in brief:
- boot off cd, and it asks if you want to verify the installation media
- I said yes
- partition and stuff like that
- it fails to read the zlib package and I get a unhandled python
exception
- reboot
- boot off cd
- do everything the same
- it fails to read some other package, and I get the exception and reboot
- give up and install 7.3
I've had no troubles with the CD drive before, and it's a new hard disc.
Are the CDs I am handing out defective (despite verifying), or am I just
cursed?
