In the course of much trouble with installing F9 on one of my machines, I found that it helped to use an external USB CD/DVD drive -- but only if the drive was plugged directly into that machine, with no hub, switch, nor anything else in between. Then, and only then (after I also got the BIOS set up to see and boot from that drive), could I do it. -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora 8 & 9; Alpine 1.10, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3.0.6; Dillo 0.8.6, Galeon 2.0.3, Epiphany 2.20, Opera 9.27, Firefox 2 & 3 Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
