I don't know how I published this in the wrong forum befor......Guess Linux has me REALLY screwed up!!!! Sorry...
Linux CD boot problem...
I downloaded the ISO files for Redhat Linux Version: 9 (Shrike) and burned the 3 cds.
I installed it on one box with no problems but when I tried to install it on another box I get this message:
ISOLINUX 2.00 2002-10-25 isolinux checksum error.... sorry...
Boot Failed: press a key to try again
I received this error message about four times and then on the fifth try it went into the first install screen. I pressed "enter" and the screen went blank and:
Uncompressing Linux...
Incomplete literal tree
--- system halted
When I restart, I keep getting the first error message.
What gives? The CDs should be ok since they worked fine on the first box.
I have switched the CD ROM drive with one that I know for sure works.
I ran fdisk on the HDD and removed all partitions, wouldn’t install.
Ran fdisk again and installed a Primary partition, wouldn’t install.
Formatted Primary partition, wouldn’t install.
Main board: K7VMA VIA VT8365
Mem: New Trend 256MB PC133
HDD: Seagate 40GB
CD ROM: PleXwriter 8/4/32A
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
