McGovern" Sender: owner-freebsd-qa@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I picked up the 4.7 ISO ftp ftp2.freebsd.org, I believe, and have had no problems (installed on at least a half dozen machines - running it as I type, AAMOF). I haven't tried the mini ISO yet. Anybody bother checking to check the MD5s? I'm gonna guess someone is downloading them with ASCII, rather than binary ftp. -Brian > We have been getting reports of problems with the FreeBSD 4.7 Release > ISOs, such as the ones included below.
