I am new to the VM game and am having problems installing Fedora 5 on my Parallels VM with XP host. I have the Fedora CD ISO (1 of 5) in D: and when I turn on the VM I get the message:

"There is no operating system installed in the virtual machine. Please do the following:
1. Click the 'Power Off' button to stop the virtual machine.
2. Insert the installation CD with your operating system into the CD-ROM drive of your computer.
3. Click the 'Power On' button to start the virtual machine again.
4. Wait while installation program starts and follow on-screen instructions."

I follow the steps but keep getting the same message. Thanks for any advice.
