Hmm.. It's strange that it would halt on the first CD. I had an install stall on the second CD due to a corrupted file. When I burned a new copy of the CD using different burning software (used Nero this time), which informed me that the image was too large and the disc would need to be "finalized" in order to fit everything on the one disc. This didn't happen when I was using another piece of software. I also didn't have this problem with the release just prior to Yarrow, which I burned on non-RW discs. It's possible that there's a problem with the image sizes for RW discs.

Is there some inherent problem > with installation or am I not doing something that I need to do? Possibly unrelated, but I put FC1 on my workstation here at home this weekend. The first disc stalled after 4 packages. Having bought a stack of Memorex Black CD-Rs that day and with the Yarrow isos on my laptop win partition, I burned some new CDs and all was fine after that. There are some really crappy CD blanks out there. -- Jack Bowling mailto: jbinpg@xxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
