I booted from my CD-ROM and it boots to the Kernel Configuration Menu.
I selected the visual mode and went through the configuration steps. The
Device Configuration VI went fine. Had to disable some drivers for
some devices that I didnt have. Then selected the standard
installation. Went to the Fdisk VI and I selected the entire disk and
marked the slice as bootable. Went to the Disklabel Editor and selected the
automatic option. Selected the "All system sources" to install from
the CD-ROM. This is where everything goes downhill. It stops with
the following error "Write Failure on transfer!" "Unable to transfer
the bin distribution from acdoc." I used the ATL+F1 to display the
errors and it stated:
/stand/gunzip: <fd:0>: invalid block type
/stand/cpio: premature end of life
I'm new to this all and I'm lost. Any help would be great. Thanks!
