I had the same problem. I solved it by changing PIO setting in bios. Eventually PIO2 worked and I was able to complete an install. That was after 2 weeks of trying every combination of installation and bios setting I could think of. I don't know why the 8.0 dvds have this problem and I don't know if SuSE do either. I have a Relysis dvd and not a Pioneer where problems have been acknowledged on the SuSe database. Mike On Monday 03 June 2002 11:29, Damon Register wrote:
After having been away from the list a while, I rejoined several weeks ago and saw the posts about 8.0. At first I thought I would wait for 8.1 but this weekend in a weak moment I bought SuSE 8.0 Pro. My PC booted from the first CD but just hung with the clock cursor right after the search for the braille display. I went to another Windows PC to make some boot floopies to try that way but the rawrite directory wouldn't even copy to my hard drive. The CD is unreadable. I returned to Best Buy for a replacement and tried installing with that one and it has the same problem. This morning I tried it on two different PCs at work and the same problem. What is the problem with SuSEs manufacturing? I remember reading one post that complained of CD 1 being unreadable. Have others had this problem?
