Hello list, I was installing 4.0-R from the iso I downloaded and burned to CD the other day and everything was working fine until it got the the actualy copying of X11 files. This (below) happened about 3 or 4 times, I am unsure, but always came up with the same error. About 20 of these would roll by in the other tty (alt-F2). acd0: READ_BIG - MEDIUM ERROR asc=11 ascq=00 error=04 /stand/gunzip: failed gzclose /stand/cpio: premature end of file Is this something wrong with the iso? It only happened during the copying of X11 files. Everything before and after that worked flawlessly, so I don't think there is a data medium problem. I guess another question might be, how can I make sure I have all of the files for X installed? Should I just ftp them from ftp.xfree86.org? The cdrom drive is a Creative IDE 24x that has worked with FBSD 2.2.5 - 3.1 without problems, attached as a slave to the first hard drive. I quick search of the archives lead me to believe that this is a common SCSI problem and I didn't see any other messages involving the installation. Any pointers? Clues? I don't mind doing another installation, but still curious as to what might be going on. System info: Tyan motherboard 6.4GB hard drive as master Creative CD-Rom as slave 433 Celeron 8.4GB as secondary master 128MB memory some other SCSI stuff....
