Is D: simply a partition, or is it a separate physical hard drive? And
I don't know if you're going to be able to mount a fat32 drive from
within linux setup - you need to have a directory to mount it first. I
think the instructions on http://fedora.redhat.com/download/ say you
need to have a linux installation already running to install that way. I
could be wrong, so someone correct me if I am. Also, you would have had
to specify the iso filename, not just the path to a directory containing it.
And yes, you do need all 3 CD's, but no, that's not your problem.
