rh9 instaltion problem (bad sectors?)

lol yea....but those are fun.

"An error occurred transferring the install image to your hard drive.
You are probably out of disk space."


I was also facing this problem. For a week I tried each and every possible combination, tricks, every possibility but no help.

My solution
Actually the error message was misguiding.
The media (CD) was corrupt. I installed it from a CD after checking it from media check prompt that displayed in the starting of installation
I checked all other previous CD and found all corrupted.
:)

^^^ That was my conclusion also. Don't burn linux install disks too fast. 12x is more than enough.
Another observation which may help. I found it impossible to install from a dvd-rom drive with the same error regardless of the speed of the burn.

For servers you should really use something more up to date. RH9 may be stable, but it has certain security holes that you could drive a bus through, which are well known and documented on the 2600 news groups.
