Guys,

Just installing another 3.3-R box tonight.

On the install, I keep getting:

/stand/cpio: invalid header: checksum error
/stand/cpio: warning: skipped X bytes of junk
/stand/cpio: no such file or directory

The /bin distrib install doesn't complete.  

I get the same problem on my 3.2-R CDs, so I believe it's a hardware
problem.

Does anyone know what piece of broken hardware would cause this?  I'd
rather not take the whole machine back.

Thanks,
Michael
