SOLVED: Installation Source Error

Postby davewhite » Sun Feb 21, 2016 8:50 pm

The DVD boots fine but I can not seem to find an iso source Fedora likes. My DVD drive doesn't even show up on the list. I'm this close to calling it quits.

Have you tried the minimal install CD for Fedora 21?

That is the recommended install method.

Ensure you have wired network connectivity.

The message indicates you do not.
