I used a text install and did media checks on all disks first. All disks
passed media checks with ok to use. So I try to run the rest of the
installation and fail. After package selection I left at defaults the
system gets ready to install the first package and this message comes up
claiming the install media is corrupt and telling me to insert disk - 99.
I have no clue what to try after that other than a kickstart file or a
telnet install. Might there be another way to salvage the situation for
an install using text? I tried this on an old Dell and a new AMD Athelon
K7 machine with identical results. Can anyone explain what I ran into and
is it likely to still be a feature of FC7? I'm not the only one with this
problem either, though I use a speakup modified Fedora, I read about
another blogger over in India who didn't use a speakup modified Fedora and
ran into the same problem.
