I booted off of the CentOS live CD and then used fsck to force a check of the file system, which looked like it was fully formatted. The live CD had already mounted the swap partition, so I presumed that was ok. I then restarted the installation, except instead of using linux vnc I used linux askmethod vnc and I also set the partitions to be left formatted as is. Otherwise, I made exactly the same selections. This time the install was perfect. I suspect that the install didn't know to look on the CD, which is why I added askmethod, based on some research, but I don't know if this was the issue or something happened at the end of the format. Anyone else have this issue? Any insights? Thanks! Brett
