Make sure that the CD-ROM is selected as the primary boot device in your
systems Hardware BIOS setup. Also, make sure that you can read the files
on the Red Hat 7.3 CD. Make sure the the copied CD is NOT a CD-RW. Note
that some older systems do not support the ability to boot from CD-ROM.
Also, some older CD-ROM drives can have problems reading CD-R discs.

Hope this helps,

Subject: question regarding burning the linux installable cd

hi, i was trying to copy the linux os (red hat 7.3) from one cd to
another 
(total of 3 cds) but when i tried to install linux from the new copied
cd i 
was not able to boot from the new burned cd to install the linux. do i
have 
to do something else rather than just copying all the files from one cd
to 
another to make another linux installable cd?
