Did you get a dialog saying that a package couldn't be read asking you to retry
just before the crash?

Comment 4 Jeff Wrenn 2002-10-07 23:43:14 UTC
This is the message I received when install failed.
The file /mnt/sysimage/var/tmp/zlib-1.1.4-4.i386.rpm cannot be opened.  This is 
due to a missing file, a bad package, or bad media.  Press <return> to try 
again.

Comment 5 Jeff Wrenn 2002-10-09 01:27:35 UTC
Help!  What is the fix?

Comment 6 Jeff Wrenn 2002-10-09 02:20:42 UTC
Tried to install it again.  This is the message I received when install failed.
The file /mnt/sysimage/var/tmp/perl.Filter-1.28-9.i386.  rpm cannot be opened.  
This is due to a missing file, a bad package, or bad media.  Press <return> to 
try again.


Comment 7 Jeremy Katz 2002-10-09 15:25:11 UTC
As described in the bug this was marked a duplicate of, an update disk for Red
Hat Linux 8.0 is available at
http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/8.0-cdread.img that should correct this problem.
 If you download this image and place it on a floppy disk (using dd or rawrite
as with a boot disk), and then boot with 'linux updates' from the syslinux
prompt, you will be prompted to provide this disk.

Comment 8 Jeff Wrenn 2002-10-10 02:15:58 UTC
How am I to implement this bug fix when I can't even boot up linux?  What 
is "dd or rawrite" and what is the syslinux prompt?
