Unfortunately it''s the same error as below. The file is definitely
there.

The dd command is the issue,it''s not going to produce a valid image.
Youlre seeking 4096k and reading one block.
Just do dd if=/dev/cdrom of=myimage.iso

Thanks, Andrew. I''ve been going this direction with no success.
Here''s
what I''ve done so far:
1. Copy CD ISO to Fedora system
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/w2k3.iso bs=1024 seek=4096k count=1
1. Edit config file /etc/xen/w2k3virt1
disk = [ ''file:/xen/w2k3virt1,hda,w'',
''file:/home/w2k3.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'', ]
1. xm create -c w2k3virt1
Error: Disk image does not exist: /home/w2k3.iso

Check the virtual machine settings and see if the CD is still
configured.
For example if you''re w2k iso is in /opt/disks then make sure
you have something like the following
disk = [ ''file:/ .. your harddisk image ....'',
''file:/opt/disks/w2k.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'', ]

I''ve been trying to install W2K on Fedora Core 6. I found a

I''m running into is that once the Windows installer boots and begins
the
"Installing Windows" step, I immediately get this error window:
Setup was unable to access files need to continue. This could be
caused by an error on the CD Media or the CD is no longer present in the
drive.
Any advice?

Lets test the image first. So if you do the following dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/myimage.iso then you should me able to mount it mount -o loop /tmp/myimage.iso /mnt If you do this can you see the directory structure in /mnt On Mon, 2006-12-04 at 10:48 -0800, Jimison, Ed wrote:> Unfortunately it’s the same error as below.

Do you have SELinux enabled (i.e. run "getenforce")? Are there any messages in /var/log/audit/audit.log or /var/log/messages saying that the read was denied? If SELinux is indeed enabled, as a test try disabling it by running "setenforce 0", and then starting the install again. Chris Lalancette
