OK, I got rid of the checksum errors. I was trying to install off of a
mounted FreeBSD partition (UFS) and that's where I got the errors, so I
ftp'd the whole directory to a local SUN and then installed using manual ftp
from the SUN. I lost the checksum errors, but now during extraction (and
other random points during install such as checksum or even booting) I get
an error:
ahc0: target 0, lun 0 (sd0) timed out
(repeated various times)
and
/:bad dir ino 4 at offset 0: mangled entry
panic:bad dir
Any clues? I really want to use this SCSI controller... it hums under NT.
Thanks

Ahhhhh..
Well, this problem should hopefully go away soon as I go to libftp!

Please mail questions like this to (not surprisingly) questions@FreeBSD.org.
-current is for people who are already running -current and need to
stay up to date on issues having to do with it. You're not quite in
that category! :-)
What happens when you try to fetch the bindist over manually, running
to do_cksum.sh script yourself? Hit ESC twice to get a shell and try
this by hand.
