Are the CentOS and fed 10 DVDs of a similar type, and different to the DVD you used with fed 9? Or is your CentOS on CDs? A common problem I have is that some DVD drives really don't like some brands of disc. Some have issues with DVD-R's, some have issues with DVD+R's, some seem to be completely random. ymmv, but if the failing discs are the same brand, it's probably your cheapest quickest solution to reburn on a different brand and see if that helps. -- Spiro Harvey Knossos Networks Ltd 021-295-1923 www.knossos.net.nz
