I got the set of 4 CD's for installing Fedora Core 2. The CD's have been used for installation on other PC's with success.
I have a Pentium II, mothercard ASUS PL97, 2 HDD (20 and 3 Gb), a Creative CD2422ECD-ROM drive and a SCSI CD drive.
When I boot from the CD, the initialization runs correctly, but, after the screens asking to choose language, Keyboard, etc I got an announcement: "CD ROM absent, insert CD 1", although the CD is in the drive and was properly recognized at boot.
I tried to boot from the SCSI CD Drive, but the BIOS does not accept it.
Who can help ?
Try the following:
1. When it says the CD-ROM is absent, try putting the CD in the other drive at that point.
2. Try disabling the SCSI CD drive in the BIOS or SCSI BIOS for the duration of the installation.
3. Try physically disconnecting the SCSI CD drive for the duration of the installation.
