I am installing Red Hat 9 (using boot disk) on my Athlon XP 2400 workstation andI get to the point where it asks:
"What type of media contains the packages to be installed?" I choose the Local CDROM option and it reports: No driver found
Unable to find any devices of the type needed for this installation typ?...etc.
This is a Standard CDR drive and I have tried another regular CD drive in my previous h/w configurations (didn't work either). Shouldn't the boot disk load a driver to see a CDR/CD drive? I remember in the RH 7 Unleashed book by Bill Ball that there was a boot: xxxxx to force it to use a CD drive. In that install (RH 7) it couldn't see a CD drive as well. I also checked RH.com for the latest updates for boot disk images and there were not any. So....what are the typical solutions for when an boot disk install does not see the CD/CDR drive.
My first attempt was with a CD I burned myself. It didn't work,so I bought the retail CD workstation...still didn't work....
TIA!
