RE: RHDB 2.1 ISO not working

[Fred New <Fred.New@MicroLink.ee>]

I also had no problems with an ISO file downloaded from a local mirror site
about a week ago.  Of course I didn't create a CD, I just mounted it:

1. mkdir /mnt/iso
2. put the following line in /etc/fstab:
/<directory-name>/rhdb21-i386.iso  /mnt/iso  iso9660 noauto,ro,loop 0 0
3. mount /mnt/iso

(Replace <directory-name> with the directory where you put the ISO file.)

Hi Paul,

Andrew and I downloaded the latest (2.1) ISO and tried to install it on
test systems running Red Hat Linux 7.3, 8.0 and AS 2.1 via both, hd (w/
iso mounted) and cd. We were unable to reproduce the error you
experienced in any of the cases.
