I am in the middle of an upgrade from redhat 8 to Fc3. when it asks for
cd#2 I put it in and it tells me its not the right disk. I reburned the is
image file again and get the same thing. I am stuck, I cant turn the pc off
without losing everything!!! HELP!!! I got the image from the linuxiso.com
site what could be wrong??
Is the distro corrupt?

thanx Dola

Well you are posting from a working computer. So you just installed RH8
and went to FC3 heh? Sounds like there is a problem with the media.
Burn a new FC3 disc 2 and put it in the drive. Better yet, take the
disc you think is disc 2 and put it in another machine to make sure it
is disc 2

Sorry for the late answer since you probably have already gotten past
your predicament. If you havene't here is what I would do: keep
the computer running that you are trying to upgrade and see if you
can network it to another computer. Then copy all the files you really
need to the second computer. Once that is done, do a new install from
known good set of FC3 disks, then move the vital files back to it that
went to your "backup" machine. That should do it.
