Redhat 7.2 discs not booting?


Now, i might just be dumb , but I'm tryin to upgrade to 7.2...i got 7.1 running now. I downloaded two of the 4 discs so far - the disk1 & disk2, not the SRPMS discs..

and neither of them are bootable. they seem to have an alphabetical listing of the RPMs...that's it.

there's no .bootimg or anything on either disc

anybody know what if anything i'm doing wrong?

thanks, much appreciated.

Re: Booting

Did you download the ISO's and make your CD's from that?

ISO's

I guess your best bet would be to re-download the ISO's and try to install it again. I guess the ISO's you downloaded were corrupt.
