Description Need Real Name 2000-10-02 23:04:43 UTC
I am trying to upgrade a Linux 6.0 system to 7.0. After booting and 
telling the system where to look for the RPMS and base files, The computer 
starts Anaconda then it gives me a file report of what went wrong. Here is 
the file:
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda.real", line 438, in ?
    intf.run(todo, test = test)

This happenes when I try to install or upgrade.

Comment 1 Need Real Name 2000-10-03 06:03:40 UTC
Since I posted earlier I found three different RPMS that were the wrong size. 
Indexhtml was one of them. The ftp server reports that the file size is 16967 
after being downloaded the filesize was 17031. The only way I could fix this 
was to switch to binary mode on my ftp program. Now I get a totally different 
dump from anaconda

Please do an md5sum of the file and I'll see if its not currupted.
