Please take a moment to check your disks (CD & DVD) before attempting the upgrade. I recieved my boxed set the other day and only discovered both sets were bad after I began the install and had it lock up or fail to unpack RPMs. Even the DVD was affected.
The scratches are about 1 inch wide (or 2.7cm) and about the same length. They vary from deep to almost invisible starting at the inner hold. The marks on the DVD were literally invisible and I could only see them after I tried wiping it with a clean cloth.
Are you sure this is not the 2 CD drives problem reported by others. It starts the install fine but when it comes to reading the packages it tries to read from /dev/cdrom and if your drive has another name it freezes. David
