My best guess is that your ISOs got slightly corrupt. Try checking the

I just purchased a Dell Otiplex GX270T (3.20GHz, P4, 800 FSB, 1 Gb
Ram, DVD+RW drive).  I tried to install Redhat 9.0, but the installer
was unable to identify my hard drives.  I have two 120GB SATA, 7200
RPM Hard Drives with Data Burst Cache.  The installer asked if I
wanted to add a driver, but I didn't see anything that would work.
So after doing some research, I found out that the kernel in Redhat
9.0 didn't support SATA drives, I needed kernel version 2.4.22 or
higher to support SATA.  After digging around some more, I find out
that Fedora supports SATA drives.  I downloaded the iso's, checked the
md5 sums, burned the CD's, and finally thought I'd jumped the last
hurtle.  It booted, asked which install to use, I hit enter for the
graphical install, started loading and then I got th following:

Uncompressing Linux...

invalid compressed format (err=2)

--System halted


I then tried text install, but with the same result. Does anybody have any idea what's going on?
