Thanks for the ideas. I don't know for sure, but I tried at least from 10 different download servers, and from 3 different locations and it did not work. I will regrettably be switching to suse, I heard they have no problems installing via ftp or http given you have enough memory. I regret to agree with so many other postings. I am deeply dissaponted how things went since RHL became Fedora. This was the last for me!
