Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Subject: Re: [Fedora-config-list] ISO Image fail?

I'm assuming you did check your MD5 checksums, having cleared that....

I had the very same problem you talk about and it turns out it's most probably your cd-rom, check out this link.
http://www.linuxinstall.org/media.php

i actually downloaded all 3 isos twice, even tough the checksums where o.k. the first time and burned 3 copies of fedora. i tought it was a problem with my HD, and so i reinstalled another OS just to check if that worked. and it did, so having ruled out the HD i tried running the test on another computer and voila all three cd's aced the tests.

aparently fedora core 1 gets picky sometimes with cheap cd-rom drives and i know my cd-rom is the cheapest one i could get. and thats only sometimes because i changed cd drives for an ecqually cheap one and it worked out great.

dont try installing if it fails the test, (i tried a couple of times) it's just going to fail again during the install and make you reboot, at best its going to do a very messy grub install that doesnt let you boot up.
