I just download CENTOS 5.4 DVD ISO X86_64 version from internet. I tried to install it on DELL server and get following error message before RPM start install:
parted_1.8.1-23.els.x86_64.rpm can NOT open
anyone know why?
Should I download it again from any good site?
If I install CENTOS 5.3 and use yum update, will it go to CENTOS 5.4?
Thanks.
Did you check that the DVD was good with mediacheck? md5sum'ed the ISO? No need to download again if the ISO is OK.
Also, burn at the slowest speed to ensure that there are no errors. I have had this problem and solved it by burning at a slow speed, although it will take a lot longer to burn the DVD.
Burning at a slower speed usually does NOT increase burn quality. You may have a bad writer or bad DVD R's. Use DVD-R's for maximum compatibility.
Sure it does. For example, what's the alleged speed of the writer... and what's the alleged speed of the DVD itself? I made a coaster or two, just in the last year (don't burn a lot of CD's or DVD's), and once I slowed down the writer, it came out fine.
