Description Gary Prochilo 2005-10-11 15:08:28 UTC
After installing cd 1, after the system reboots I gett an error media mount failed.
The url listed is cd:///;devices=dev/hdc.

This cannot possiblly be "critical" if it happens only in very rare cases 
-> downgrading severity 
Comment 2 Stefan Hundhammer 2005-10-11 17:54:02 UTC
From what media did you install? Shipped CDs from a SuSE Linux box? Or 
downloaded ISOs? If so, did you perform a media check during installation - or 
check the MD5-sums of all CDs? 
 
Also, please attach y2logs and the output of "hwinfo" - see also

I did the install from iso images. I did not see a checked media option during 
the installation. This is Suse 10.0.
Comment 4 Stefan Hundhammer 2005-10-11 18:11:52 UTC
I am not 100% sure when the media check is enabled, so please perform a manual 
media check. 
 
In most cases like this, the media are simply defective - faulty download, 
faulty blank CD, CD writer writing errors.

any news on this one? 
Comment 6 Gary Prochilo 2005-10-12 17:20:23 UTC
I am stillno able to get this to work. I downloaded iso 1 and verified the 
download with md5sum key matched. I started the installation and before I even 
put in cd 2 the media error is present. What do you recommend. 
Comment 7 Stefan Hundhammer 2005-10-13 09:46:40 UTC
Did you check the MD5SUM of the CD, or only the downloaded ISO?

Besides, this is really an issue for installation support, not a bug of the 
installation. We'd have noticed in our hundreds and thousands of test 
installations if that didn't work generally. 
 
Comment 8 Gary Prochilo 2005-10-13 18:16:51 UTC
I did a md5sum on the iso. Should I do it for the cd also?
