Well, I'm not sure what it is... it's got a single cable going to a unit that included the cd-rom (laptop style) and floppy. I've tried another cd/floppy set that I have, and get the same error.
I find it strange that it gets all the way to 21% and dies though... It doesn't have any issues reading the other packages... just when it hits that one.

Is the CD-ROM drive SATA? Any BIOS settings for drive emulation? That'd be my guess...

When I attempt to install, get to where it is loading the base on which it runs the partitioner. It gets to 21% and loading libc6-udeb and there's where it hangs.It tells me it's having issues reading from the CD-Rom and bombs.Now, I've tested the CDs, and they are good. Both the md5 of the .iso and the cd's own check process shows they are good. Google shows others having the same issue, but no solution. Any guesses? I realize I can go with another distro, but it's a little like talking a Chevy guy into a Ford... I'll listen, but I like my truck. (Yes, I realize Debian would still be a GM... ;o)I have installed 6.06 LTSP and am in the process of manually upgrading. This will work, but I'd like to just do a clean install of 7.10.Mike K.
