    Jeffery:

    Can you boot to the mediacheck screen? If so, check the disk. If you cannot, run winmd5 against the .iso and check it against the md5sum values available at the fedora site. They must match. It is possible to get a corrupt download, burn the image and read the disk in one or two machines and cause problems with others.
    I suggest redownloading the .iso image and reburning the CD. As a further suggestion, I always do initial burns to RW media in case I got a bad image file and need to retrieve it a second (and third..) time.

    Has anyone else had a problem w/
    http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/iso/FC2-i386-
    disc1.iso? I'm trying to do my first even install of Linux, and my computer
    will not boot from the CD I made from this image. I can view the contents of
    the disk from the WinXP computer I made it on, but it crashes Windows
    Explorer on other computers. I AM able to boot from the disk created from
    FC2-i386-rescuecd.iso w/ no problem and view the contents of disks 2-4 as
    well as the rescue disk...

    Thanks,
