Hi folks, I've got a K7D master with two Athlon MP 2000 processors and a gig 
of 333 ddr.  

I downloaded, md5 checked, and burned the cdroms.  Then, I did the media 
check, and it froze the machine on the first disk @ 79%.  

No stranger to CDROM troubles and RH  ( :) ), I got another CDROM, and tried 
again.  Same problem, @ 79%.  Then, reset the bios to the fail-safe options, 
same problem.

Went to a different machine, media check came out ok, installation went just 
fine.  So, I took that CDROM and installed it into my problem child.  Media 
check froze @ 79%.  

At this point, I suspect there is some wonkieness between the installation 
kernel and the hardware, and I don't know how to resolve it.  I'm going to 
check to see if I have the latest version of my bios and upgrade it if I 
don't, but does anybody have any other ideas for me?  It would be greatly 
apprecaited.

Sean
