    Exclamation SuSE 10.2 Insallation problems

    Hey, Iam kinda new to the whole Linux thing, I hear SuSE is supposed to be the easiest to install etc.. I have researched compatability with my current Dell XPS M140 and have seen no problems with it. I have also had ubuntu I belive installed on with with full function. Since I have been wanting to install and run SuSE 10.2 but when I go and begin the installation I will always get errors saying
    somethin along the lines of

    "cannot create cd:///dev-dev/sr0 or /var/tmp.(random)/MEDIA"
    I have tried formatting everythin and makin an ext3 and swap partition and still get the same problem. I have burned two copies from my DVD iso I downloaded via bitorrent. I am about to burn one more at the slowest speed for the DVD and try again.. but any insight as to what iam doing wrong would really be appreciated!

    hey it seems to be workin now, I guess 3rd time is always a charm and also if you burn the DVD at 4x instead of 8x helps
