Anyone seen this error when starting an installation ?

I have seen this a couple of times when installing RHEL - was never really bothered about it as I never really run into any problems once the os is installed.

I always thought it might be a read error but now I got the same error on a server which just mounts the iso onto a remote administration card (ipmi) and I had the same error when installing RHEL desktop.

So I am wondering if this is a 5.3 bug of some sort.

RedHat support also says its "just" a read error but it is quite a coincidence that I receive the same error on both, server and client OS whether I install it from an iso or a burned media ..

Just wondering if I am the only one seeing this, if this is the case then I might as well just download the iso again.

It reads to me like a read error. I never experienced it before in iso or burned format. It would probably be a good idea to redownload.

It is just weird that I have the same error when installing the server and desktop version (which are both entirely different isos).

But yea - gonna re-download ..

Oh but having said that - I do not see that error when I install RHEL on a virtual machine - only on physical machines .... So confusing lol ..

lol - that was a fun week. Redhat asked for several logs, reinstalls etc. so I was able to re-produce the error. But as "I" don't REALLY have any problems (just being confused about error) they kinda begged me to say that I am alright to close the request.

I used to work in technical support as well so I know the whole deal with closed tickets and statistics etc., but I personally always tried to at least escalate it further if I smelled a bug or something .. But this was more like "I don't care if this is a bug, but it is the end of the month so I want to have the closed ticket on my stats" kinda call
