Is RedHat 8.0 hiding things?

zlib is important. I never have media problems because i must be the only person who gets off there fat arse and ***pays*** for there linux copys thats what you get if you are a greatful Linux user. So why not try sparing about $30 and getting Red-Hat Linux from

Uh, I don't believe it's a media problem. I get the idea according to bugzilla that it doesn't matter whether you are using the purchased CDs or the downloaded CDs (which are the same BTW for the personal edition). But it obviously is only a problem on certain hardware configurations (considering m0r b0b is the only one of us who's had the problem). Must have something to do with shady CD-ROM drives. There is a patch that you can download and stick on floppy, then load it during the install process which is supposed to fix the install problem.

Hmmm sounds like I may have a bug that's in most Linux distros? Do you think if I went to Redhat about it, they would help me solve the problem, just to confirm it's not a bug due to using Redhat on my comp? Would be a good deal(cuz their e-mail tech support is not free)...

But still if he paid for the distro he could have called 1-800-REDHAT and got some tech support with the RHN service. Once again pay pay pay

That's true. I've never had a problem in all of my years of using Linux that I couldn't figure out on my own though. So what happens if he buys his copy, has this problem, and calls RedHat and they not be able to help? Do you ask for your money back? I mean just because you have support doesn't mean they *have* to solve your problem but chances are they will. I would call Microsoft and tell them their stupid OS won't boot RedHat and see how far you get.

Already does what? Who doesn't understand? Must be me, because I have no idea what you are talking about.
