I had this problem with the boot cdrom as well. I made an alternate iso
as per instructions in Bugzilla 111723, and was able to install from the
altered disk. I would cheerfully provide the name of my specific
machine and bios revisions except I need instructions on how to find
this information. I stumbled around in the CMOS menus for a bit without
finding it.
uname -a shows
Linux elainelinux 2.6.3-2.1.253.2.1 #1 Fri Mar 12 14:01:55 EST 2004 i686
athlon i386 GNU/Linux
My hardware is a generic box bought from a local storefront so I
wouldn't have to pay for a Windows license I had no plans to use. If
someone will tell me how to determine more specific information, I will
post it to the bugzilla report.
