Don't think it's the Mac. I understand that this is that the install gets part-way through and then demands the install CD. Have you tried burning the CDs at the slowest speed possible? Occasionally that helps. Have you verified the CDs at the beginning of the install? Alternatively, you could try doing a network install. This link ( http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/linux-adv/network-install.htm ) talks about Kickstart, but most of it is applicable to normal network installs. You'd need to set up an FTP, HTTP *or* an NFS server on one of those computers. (Incidentally, it helps if you keep the exact same subject OR reply to one of your earlier posts OR do something else to get the References header into your e-mail. Your e-mail came nowhere near your earlier ones, making it difficult for me to see what the problem was). Hope this helps, James. -- James Wilkinson | It is a mistake to allow any mechanical object to Exeter Devon UK | realise that you are in a hurry. E-mail address: james | @westexe.demon.co.uk |
