Beta 2 install problem from CD images

[NavyLT]

I downloaded the 3 CD iso's to my hardrive. Replaced the VMLINUZ-ALL and ALL.RDZ on my boot partition with the files from the new ISO. Booted into the installer and the install goes fine until it starts hitting openoffice packages from CD 3 then I start getting bunches of package errors. Then I get notified that required packages such as shorewall and acpid aren't installed. When I boot into Beta 2, I have no shortcuts for the install/remove programs so I can't add kernel sources required to add madwifi and therefore can't get to any servers to upgrade the damage packages. Is anyone else having this problem?

 

I downloaded another CD3 iso from a different mirror, ran the md5sum check on all three ISO's and they match. I had exactly the same problem with the second ISO file I downloaded. I let the DVD ISO download overnight so today after work I will try to install Beta 2 from that.

 

Thanks!

I ran the install from the DVD iso file and no problems. Nobody else has had any problems with the 3 CD iso files?

Sir, how's it runny for you?

Not bad. I installed it, loaded the Cooker mirrors into RPMDRAKE and ran the 213 updates, then the sound driver broke. So I reloaded and I am going back now to track down which update broke the sound driver.
