    The DVD that comes with the Linux Bible includes the complete set of
    Fedora Core 3 binaries, as well as a bootable KNOPPIX. It is not just
    the Fedora 3 DVD iso. Pressing enter at the boot prompt will boot
    KNOPPIX. If that works, the media is probably okay. Reboot and type
    linux to install Fedora.

    Is it possible that you have a bad hard disk?
