Greetings all;
I just tried to install F8 on a fresh 400GB sata disk, on an offboard
controller. I configured it so as not to touch the existing drives with FC6
installed on them so that I had some continuity and could back up to Fc6 as I
am now.
Everything was marching along at a good rate, with basically an everything
install, 1266 packages IIRC.
At the 805th package it bailed out. The package was:
xorg-x11-xinit-1.0.7-2.fc8.i386.rpm
It either could not be opened or was missing. The media did pass checksum,
and the network was alive & well, the install getting much of its info from
there according to the traffic on my router.
Next?
Thanks.
