There is no such thing as Red Hat 10.1. What distro war you trying to install? This will give us some more helpful information.

Since the edit button doesn't seem to want to work, I meant to say "What distro are you trying to install?"

your dvd/cd needs cleaning. or there's a problem with the cd/dvd itself.

i had the same problem before. press the refresh button on your browser after you've clicked on 'edit'.
