Hi,

I have been using Fedora thru release 4 but Fedora 5 has me stumped
for what should be a routine thing. I can't burn any CDs without
"media check" telling me that the CD is bad. I have checked md5sums
on all the CDs and they check out fine. When "media check" runs, it
complains about not being able to access repodata.xml. It happens on
the first disk and every other disk of the Fedora 5 distribution. I
use Imation CD-Rs and have not had any problems with them. Googling
for the problem has not helped. Please help before I burn more
coasters. Thanks

First this is a known problem when doing the media check, so either skip it
or fix it;

Now for the kicker.......... the FC5 CD's are missing some 22 files;

Lenard,

Thanks for your input. I was almost ready to give up installing FC5
but Konsole on FC4 did not have the right fonts and I thought I might
as well burn one last set of FC5 CDs or reinstall FC4. I burned them
at 52x with Nero Express. To my amazement the last ditch effort paid
off and I have a complete new install of FC5. I reviewed all the
problems on the links that you posted in your response. I thought I
had to wait until FC6 for them to fix all the install errors. But I
got lucky. I have to say FC5 is a beauty with all the colors and the
right fonts. Glad I persisted. Thanks again for your response. Its
appreciated.
