when does this message appear?
what kind of computer are you using?
did you burn the cds yourself? did you purchase them?
please be more verbose

okay
make sure you have disc 1 in the drive, that you are using non-schizo hardware, and that your disc is clean/scratch-free

Last time I got that error, I had a bad stick of RAM... try swapping out RAM, etc.

Save yourself some guesswork and use memtest86. You can download a package to make a bootable floppy or CD and run RAM tests.
Incidentally, I have a box of misc. SIMMS/DIMMS if you are in need of some.

it goes past that part now and goes to where you make accounts and partitions and then starts the next part and then has error 15 instead of 11

psinet just had a similar problem with FC3. Check out this post. I think the install needs to see RAM in 32-64-128-256-512 etc. remove or replace sticks to get one of these numbers of RAM and I believe you'll be sound as a pound.
