The ones on the local Taiwan mirror (netbsd.csie.nctu.edu.tw) are corrupted.

I'll keep trying to get through to ftp.freebsd.org tonight and grab that one segment. No errors were posted about bad checksums during the install, so I suspect that there really is a bad segment, or the checksums are somehow being skipped. -- Brian ("Though this be madness, yet there is method in't") Tao taob@gate.sinica.edu.tw <-- work ........ play --> taob@io.org
