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. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
