  • During installation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 using DVD media, the following error appears halting the installation.
..file hunspell-en.0.20090216-7.1.el6.noarch.rpm cannot be opened/copied
  • The DVD then gets ejected and installer gives another message
"load the red hat install disk number 1".
