Hi there,
I am trying to install Debian on a brand new system and it has a basic IDE CD-ROM.
I tried a couple versions of Debian CDS ( full install, netinstall, businesscardISO) but all of them is giving me the message:
"your installation cd-rom couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. if so you can insert it and try again."
Ive triple checked that the CD itself is not corrupted
The computer itself is detecting the CD-ROM just fine and it boots up with Debian and I can specify the language/country etc. Until I get to the cd-rom mount error.
I tried using a older CD-ROM hooking it up to this new system (thsi worked with our previous system) and also tried Fedora and I am getting the same cd-rom unmountable error msg.
In the BIOS, the cd rom is showing as
lite-on cd-rw sohr-5
Any ideas will be great here.
wonder why its not reading in cd....
