Cannot install packages (Mandrake 9.2)

Do you want to continue installation?"

If I click yes, it tells me that the installation failed. Can someone tell me where to get all the files I need to install packages and other software?? I burned my cds myself, and when mandy installed it didnt install a lot of softwar.

And yes I already downloaded and installed all the updates.

Where are you getting your packages from? CD? Or an fp site? If a site, you should update the source just before you choose to install something as Mandrake is full of new stuff all the time. I have noticed that error when I have a different list stored on my machine than is on the server. If that doesn't work, pick another server for updates. That sometimes works too.

Thank you. :)

Hey I'm getting the same problem. I'm attempting to install the kernel source from my mandrake cd, but I'm getting that the packages have bad signatures. I am not connected to the internet so I have to install them from the CD.

I'm attempting to install the kernel source so that I can install ndiswrapper, so that I can install drivers for my wireless network card.

Anyone know how to FIX this problem so that I can install these packages from the cd?
