Re: Fedora 5, and RedHat 4, Update 3

I've had similar problems, the checksums seemed to fail even when the md5sum
didn't.
Beeing neurotic I've extracted all the iso's into one folder then "rpm
--import"'ed the key on the disk and verfied every package "rpm -K blah.rpm".
They where all correct so I just exported the files through nfs (http works
just as wel) and use the isolinux on the first disk to create a disk to boot
from.
End result: quick(it's often quicker then cd/dvd installs) working install.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

John.

I have downloaded years of Fedora and RedHat isos , written them to
disc and used them for installlations.

I have not been able to write FC 5 disc2 and disc5, RedHat ES 4,
Update disc2 and disc4 successfully. They all fail the installation
test prior to starting the installation. I have checked the sha1sums
for the isos that I have. They are fine.
Any suggestions as to why the installation tests are failing.

Installing on Dell Optiplex 620s. I have successfully done this
before with a previous version of RedHat
