I'm installing via ftp from one of my own servers where I copied disc1-gnome, disc2. I did a minimal install and a x-user install, selecting gnome. These two installs worked fine. Then I copied disc1-kde into the same directory that the previous two discs went into. This time I elected x-user install and I elected to install linux compat (which I had done during the gnome install as well). It aborted with: "Add of package linux_base-8-8.0_4 aborted, error code 1 - Please check the debug screen for more info." The debug screen says: <snip> ./share/perl/man/cat3 missing (created) /usr/bin/tar: Skipping to next header /usr/bin/tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error /usr/bin/tar: Child returned status 1 /usr/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors pkg_add: tar extract of - failed! pkg_add: unable to extract table of contents file from '-' - not a package? -- i386 FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE There are 10 types of people in this world. Ones that understand binary and then, the others.
