There is a section on making boot disks.

*kicks his computer* Okay. I made the boot disk, it boots up. Asks where to install from. I tell it harddrive and point it to where the iso files are (hdb5). It says it can't find the iso images. What am I doing wrong (or not doing)?
(NOTE: this would be more appropriate for the redhat-install list.)
Sorry, just figured I could ask here since I'm already using 7.2.
I'll check next time I try, atm I just wanna delete the files and give up, especially now since I'm having a host of other problems with my box. :-(
if you're doing a graphical install, try switching back to one of the first few virtual consoles to see if perhaps there's some sort
of diagnostic message being printed.
They are not in any folders on hdb5, although I have it mounted to /linux as far as the file system is concerned.rday p.s. are the ISO images in the root directory of that partition? or in a subdirectory?
