install RH error

peterchu — Sun, 26 Dec 2004 06:42:28 GMT

I acquired the FC2 iso's from http://mirror.hiwaay.net/redhat/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/iso/
After burning them, I booted with FC2 disc #1 and ran "linux mediacheck" and checked all 4 which passed.

I proceed with install, opted to select all packages [everything] and 11% into the install of FC2 disc #1 this error occurs::

The package pcre-4.5-2 cannot be opened. This is due to a missing file or perhaps a corrupt package. If you are installing from CD media this usually means the CD media is corrupt, or the CD drive is unable to read the media.
Press to try again.

I tried reburning two times using new CDR disks and same problem occurs. Did I do something wrong or is this a bug?

thx

You can try install pcre-4.5-2 after os was installed.
