Fedora 2 install says FC CD not in drive!!
#2

perhaps your media is not burned or downloaded correctly - it happens believe me,

 

make sure to do a md5sum check on your media before attempting to install

 

read this to see how to get your md5sum program

 

also, as fedora's own website says

 

Quote:Boot From the DVD or CD to Run the Installation Program 

The ISOs have an md5sum embedded in them. It is strongly recommended you verify the md5sum on any Fedora Core CDs or DVD you create using downloaded ISO images. This will ensure that the disk was burned correctly and prevent installation failures related to bad media. To test the checksum integrity of the DVD/CDs, boot off the DVD or first CD, and type the following command at the boot: prompt:

linux mediacheck

 

The checksum operation can be performed in any order.

 

To start the installation program, boot from the DVD, the first CD, or the boot CD made from the boot.iso image.
 

please check this before assuming you have a fedora problem

 

cheers
