Hello, I want to install CentOS 4.4 on a Compaq Proliant DL 360. The installation fails just after booting on the first CD. Linux tries to autodetect hardware and fails with the CDROM. Here is the error message: ########################## hdc: CD-224E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive Using cfq io scheduler ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 ide-cd: cmd 0x5a timed out hdc: lost interrupt ide-cd: cmd 0x5a timed out hdc: lost interrupt CDROM 24x .... ide-cd: cmd 0x25 timed out ########################## I can install a RHEL4 ES on the same server whitout problem. I noticed that CentOS and RHEL use 2 different kernels to boot the 1st CD (in isolinux folder). So I tried to replace the CentOS kernel with the one I found on RHEL CD. And it works, the kernel boots, but my CentOS CD is not recognize anymore as a CentOS CD. Why CentOS didn't recognize my CDROM? What should I modify in order to install CentOS using the RHEL kernel?
