I posted this before and have not gotten a direct answer. However another poster with problems with her Nvidia drivers is using the same machine. I also tried it on a Dell Optiplex Gx1p without problems. Any ideas would be appreciated. I installed the yarrow distribution at home on a brand X machine (after testing the media on CD 1 in a separate step). Now at work I am trying to do this on DELL precision 340's. On two different machines and with two different burns of CD 1 I get the following behavior: After choosing the graphics install I come to the gui to choose test or skip. If I choose skip I get the following errors: error 2 reading header cpio: Bad Magic (repeated twice) Running anaconda Please wait .............. exec of anaconda failed: Bad addressinstall exiting abnormally I can't go any further. However if I start the same way but choose Test the CD passes the test and when I choose Continue the install succeeds. Can this be explained or fixed in some way? -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxx ----- End forwarded message ----- -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxx
