newbie install woes
 

howdy. i am trying to install slackware 9.0 beta from an image i downloaded from my school and burned onto a cd. it boots just fine. at the boot prompt i press enter, it begins to uncompress the first two files and then halts on a "crc error"....any ideas?

thx.

Do they offer MD5's on the iso's? You might just consider holding off for a bit, or getting an official 8.1 iso until 9.0 comes out.

If they offer MD5's then you should check the MD5 of your image against the one on the server.

Cool

results...
 

all i did was re-download the image, and burn it @ 4x instead of 8x and i'm all set.

thx,
