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?

Probably shouldn't have interrupted in the middle of that other thread but none the less I too have had a number boxes that would not install from the cd's unless I started out in safe mode. The very same boxes worked fine from 6.4 up. Once the first cd was done/reboot all was ok (no safemode required). Just the initial boot/installing of cd 1 had problems. A couple of them had had dvd's added also. I had no problem with the dvd what so ever. Regards Mark
