hello,

i got the 4.0-RELEASE ISO image in order to try it out and see if everything
was ok, however, there seem to be problems and i was wondering if a) anyone 
else has noticed this and b) when it will be fixed.

the MD5 checksum is god, so this doesn't appear to be a corruption due to
transmission, but rather it seems to me that the original ISO image may be
faulty.  i've noticed a lot of people having trouble with the install of 4.0
off of the iso image.  could someone try making another image to see if that
could possibly solve all this trouble.

problems i have noticed:

note: none of this interferes with a fresh install, i can manually fix 
everything that is wrong, however, it would be better if it wasn't broken
in the first place however.

most of the X servers seem to be corrupt along with Xprog.  sysinstall asks
if i want to retry, but these files are beyond usable.  

cheers,

-brian
