Maybe you "suffer" from one of the DMA related problems at the bootprompt try:

I suppose it's possible, but I've used xcdroast a lot and never had this problem before...

Sorry, I see you mentioned that in your mail.
It's also possible that there were errors in the burn, I've seen such behaviour in the past.

My best guess is that your ISOs got slightly corrupt. Try checking the
MD5 sums.

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?
