Hi there folx,
I'm trying to install the beast on p90/PCI adaptec 2940.
And _every time I see /stand/cpio's reports about error in
the archive , when installing bindist ?
*** bytes of junk , skipping to ****
So I end up with first 16% percent of bindist installed , and
probably 70% skipped because of this.. I've tried to
install from my local ftp site, from freebsd.org,from
freefall.cdrom.com - no luck...
The installation procedure is very unstable IMHO - I run
it probably 18-20 times during last 4 hours :(( , a few
real wierd things happened. I'll try to summirize it and
port here later.
Boot/root floppies are the latest ones ( from UPDATE ).
An suggestions ? I actually saw some posting in freebsd group
about similar problem and it was said there that the problem
is because there used to be some N pieces in bindinst and now
there are N[-+]1 and it confuses install procedure .
Some guy dealed with it but appending bin.ch to bin.cg , but
to me it looks like the distribution I've grabbed today is
already updated ? The bin.cg size equals exacly to the size
of {previous} bin.cg and bin.ch ....
HEEEELP !
Rashid
