Comment 23 for bug 360460

Hello,

I also encountered this problem while (trying to) install Alternate 9.10 Beta.
My confguration:
- ASUS M2NOV-VM motherboard
- AMD64 dual core processor
- Sony NEC Optiarc DVD RW AD-5170A UDMA/66
- SATA harddisk
I also tried, with the same result, Alternate 9.04 and 8.10.
I had 8.10 installed, upgraded from an earlier version, when I upgraded to 9.04 through the update manager that did not work, so I decided to do a fresh install of 9.10 Beta instead.
After digging up an old CDROM drive (as I learned from the mailings above), the installation went fine.

Hope this helps,

Kees
