Description Fred Tatum 2001-12-04 06:24:58 UTC
I get an error while trying to install linux. I don't know what the hell 
it means...If anyone can give me an idea of how to fix it, that would be 
great.

This looks like a media problem with your CDs.  If you have downloaded and
burned ISO images, please verify that the MD5sum of your ISOs matches those
published on our FTP site.  If you have received these in an official boxed
set,please contact support to receive replacement disks.
