Subject: [gentoo-user] Trouble w/ CD(s) during new gentoo install
Date: Thu, 7 Sep 2006 08:17:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <634E5748C35AC1409E0A42352E9960EA0F6A04@atnets15pa.ww300.siemens.net> (raw)

Hi,
I'm installing a new computer w/ gentoo (had Windows 2003 Server on it before). I'm installing from the minimal installation CD (tried w/ knoppix before). BUT today I OFTEN get IDE READ errors and afterwards - no command works. No shutdown, no halt, nothing. Pressing the Power button don't do anything either (oh GREAT) - I have to pull the cable (!). It seems it gets worse. The same happened w/ the knoppix CD i tried to use for booting yesterday - at first OK, then read errors, getting worse --- what gives??
Has anyone tips how to handle this (no, getting a new CDROM drive is not a FAST option :-()
ciao,
Wolfgang
