Hi Mark,

I copy using konqueror and I have a lot of free space (100 GB). The
problem happens if I copy many files from CD/DVD (more than 200MB). I
tried with three different CDs and one DVD. If I copy just few files
there is no problem.

The same problem happens if I check the DVD before the fedora
installation. I believe that is the same of using the Live CD.

I don't know what to do. If I continue testing I can damage other new
computer. But I need to use the linux. Someone can help me how to
correct this problem?

Thanks for everybody.

Celso
