Dear listers,
perhaps some of you can help.
I bought a Redhat7.1 distribution with a local magazine. However, one of the
CD's is of a different color than the second one. I can successfully install
the first CD, however, the reading of a second CD fails after a minute or
two of copying. Once my friend told me that the color of the CD can confused
laser. Is that true? What can I do about that? I tried the second
(problematic) CD on both of my CDROMs and the same behavior takes place. I
already changed the copy of the magazine for a new copy, but this did not
help.
I'd appreciate any advice.
Vic

If your friend is speaking of the underside color, some read easier then
others. But this is only a factor in CDR and CDRW media. I have not seen
nor heard of a stamped CD that in any color then silver.
As for what you can do:
1. Try a different brand of CDR
2. Replace the CD drive taht is problematic.

Nothing is hard if you know the answer or are used to doing it.
