You might try installing using a different cd or dvd rom on the blade. You could also setup an nfs server with all the installation files and install via nfs. You might also try burning the ISO files at a lower write speed. I have noticed over the years that certain drives cannot handle cd/dvd's written at high write speeds.

Hi,

It does look as though your CDs and/or CD drive are faulty.

As you're using blades, why not try using the Virtual Media functionality of iLO...?

If I recall correctly you can also use that to point to ISO files on your PC, which will rule out any possibility of problems with media. Grab the ISOs from Red Hat Network.

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Rob

when you access the internet are you required to authenticate against a proxy? That may be your up2date issue.
