i scratched my first cd's up a little, so i kept popping them out and 
back in, and it would work eventually, and if not burn a second set and 
when it sticks, put in the identical disk and it may pick back up...

I've

gotten all the ISO's to mount and burn properly, and I'll get it to
run the

anaconda installer and go through initial configuring but during the
install

process I get errors at random points and it quits the installer and I
have

to start over. What's most odd is that on the RPMs where it catches
errors

it is not always the same one. So I'm totally dumbfounded now.

    Maybe if I describe my set up and how I am trying to do it you can
point

out a mistake I'm doing?

8500/180

320 RAM

Radeon PCI 32 meg Video

ADB mouse & keyboard

40 & 20 gig HDs

My 40 gig Hard drive houses my main Mac OS 9.1 and I put the 20 gig
Hard

drive on the 2nd channel on the ATA cable. Where I'm trying to install
YDL

is on the 20 gig HD by itself. All the BootX and ramdisk files and
kernels

are on the 40 gig in their respectable locations. Does the Linux have
to be

on the same drive as Mac??? I completely understand you are a newbie
also

but you got it to install successfully and it is now irking me to do
the

same :) Any further light you shine would be much appreciated.
