    Red Hat 9 Install Help - CD 2 cannot be mounted.

    I'm installing RH9 on a Pentium II system and I get about 65% of the way thru each time, then when it asks for CD 2, anaconda will not mount the CD.

    It runs thru, then says "Change CDROM: Please insert disc 2 to continue." So I do, and I get "Error: The CDROM cannot be mounted."

    I am using the graphical install method, and...ummm...I'm not sure what other info you would need. I had this happen when I installed RH 7.2 on an identical system, I just clicked "cancel" and 'ok" compulsively until it worked. But, alas, RH9 is smarter than that.

    Please help. This is my second taste of Linux and its beginning to leave a bad taste in my mouth.

    (Oh yeah, the CD's burned fine, the MD5's checked out, so on and so forth....)

    never mind....i just made it work.

    I only had to repeat loading the CD into the drive 40 times. It finally worked.Guess thats what I get for building such a ghetto system.
