Can't install Software with Lorma Linux (Fedora)

mexx1354 · 01-02-2004, 01:23 PM

I have installed Lorma Linux (Fedora) and everything is o.k. Only - I can't install any software. I always get

Installation Tree Not Found.

The path /mnt/cdrom does not look like a valid installation source.

The Fedora CD is inserted but it won't go

I hope anyone can help me.

first, make sure that the cdrom is mounted.

if it is then try copying the cd's contents to a folder on the desktop and installing from there.

Thank you, Crazy Pilot.
My cd-rom is mounted and I have already copying the rpm's in a folder, but it doesn't help.
I always get

nstallation Tree Not Found.

The path /mnt/cdrom does not look like a valid installation source.

I'm also using Lorma Linux and have experienced this problem only when I tried to install a software by double clicking the file using Konqueror.
Try installing using the command line and typing like rpm -Uvh xxx.rpm.

Hope this helps.
