Author Installing from ISO images
Daniel Kaplan

If anyone could help me I would be so appreciative.

I have a machine, which I copied the 5 iso images to. They're in the
following directory: C:\linux\iso.

When I run install in textmode, it sees the two partitions of my HD, and for
each one I try telling it that the directory of the files is:

linux/iso

And it always comes back saying that that harddrive does not have the files.


Does anyone know what is going on here?

Many thanks

First you burn the ISOs to CDs and then boot from the first CD.

I would suggest a md5sum or sha1sum check on downloads before burning.

I have installed fc6 from iso dvd image.boot with grub for dos.
I often copy the image in the following directory: D:\name.iso,
you can have a try.maybe your images are bad.have a md5 check,i
suggest.

Make sure that the ISO images are on a FAT32 partition, NTFS isn't
supported by the RedHat/Fedora installer.
