This morning, at the peak of anticipation I tried to install (using just the binary install option): No luck. At 15%, I start getting chksum errors with a message saying something of the sort "stand/cpio checksum error - 123849 bytes skipped..." or " directory : ls cannot create". I had a funny feeling (;^)) while getting the files (over a period of four days) that the files were actually changing... These files weren't updated within the same release were they? I certainly hope not! If I have a corrupted file, is there any way for me to find which one it is? Thanks very, very, very much. dforbes@suspects.com
