I don't know about others, but it is not clear to me what your friend did. Did he transfer all the ISOs (CDs) to the folder fc4 on Windows disk D: ? Then what did he do? Also I didn't understand "I put the iso on d:\fc4 ,so I chose hda5". How exactly did he choose hda5? I'd suggest you ask your friend to say exactly what he did. Or maybe someone else will understand better then me. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
