I am trying to setup centos 4.5 on one of my hard drives.

I burned the image file to a DVD disc.

So during setup, it asks what type of media contains the packages to be installed?

I select the local cd rom option.

can anyone help here?

Code:

Then type: linux hdc=cdrom

 

You might need to switch hdc with:


  • hda - First IDE, Master

  • hdb - First IDE, Secondary

  • hdc - Second IDE, Master

  • hdd - Second IDE, Secondary


 

Try that and tell us how it goes.
