Hi,

I'm intrigued. I downloaded the latest stable version
of Debian (3.0r2), checked the MD5 sums (and verified
that it was the correct values), then recorded it to
a CD-R, and attempted installation.

I get an error telling me that the base-tools package
is corrupt. I though it might be a scracth on the CD
or some "random" defect, so I recorded it again, from
the same (verified) image. I got the same error with
the new CD.

Anyone else had this problem? Anything that I could
do to get around it?

Thanks,

Carlos

Sorry about the previous post!! Turns out it was the
CD-ROM unit! Must have been misaligned or something
that failed at a specific position, which would
explain why it would give an error with the same
file for both CD-R's.

Replaced it and the installation went fine! (not
finished yet, but it already installed the kernel
and the boot environment)

Thanks,

Carlos
