I think something is wrong with your cd or something got corrupted during your
download.

Comment 2 Hemant Gandre 2001-04-12 17:04:49 UTC
No, I downloaded anaconda* files again just to cross-check. Same result again, 
hence I posted this bug.

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2001-04-12 19:12:52 UTC
No, I think at least some of the packages themselves are corrupt.  Anaconda is
doing the right thing...trying to install the packages, but it blows up when it
can't find (or uncompress) the package it is looking for.

What kind of install are you trying to do?

Comment 4 Hemant Gandre 2001-04-13 09:30:48 UTC
I am trying to install Linux Server. How do I check which packages are corrupt. 
I have checked file sizes they do match perfectly.

Comment 5 Brent Fox 2001-04-15 21:53:18 UTC
No, I mean what kind of installation type (CDROM, hard drive, nfs, ftp, http)?
It sounds like you are trying to do a hard drive install.  If so, please try
downloading the iso images for the first and second discs, store them on a
partition on your hard drive, and boot with the boot.img disk.  If you still see
the problem, run the md5sum program on the iso images and compare them to the
md5sums that you see on the ftp site.
