Are you sure that the packages are not corrupted in some way?  It looks like
something has gone wrong while trying to read this package.

Comment 2 Richard H. Rarey 2001-06-05 21:30:41 UTC
Believe culprit to be CD-ROM drive; It failed completely when the install was attempted again. Tried using a WINDOWS98 rescue 
disk,with CD-ROM drivers loaded, and the drive failed to notice when a CD was in the tray.
Replaced CD-ROM drive and the install was flawless.
