    No! I was trying "" and it took it and started to d/l the new 
packages so I thought it was happy. It was not. So it gave me a chance, 
since it spit out what I sent, and I gave it just /media/ and it ran the 
DVD and d/l a lot of files and then just died.

    The place it was putting things had just the d/l rpm files. It 
didn't work for me at all.
