Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.> Booted Netinst CD, taking default installation (enter at prompt). Automatically proceeded through Detected Hardware to find CD-ROM drive and Scaning CD-ROM. Error occurred in [!!] Load installer components from CD: There was a problem reading data from the CDROM. Please make sure it is in the drive. If retrying does not work, you should check the integrity of your CDROM. Failed to copy file from CDROM When retry didn't work, got the message: [!!] Load installer components from CD Installation step failed An installation step failed. You can try to run the failing item again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. The failing step is: Load installer components from CD. At this point I checked alternate screens 3 and 4: Alt-F3: insmod cdrom insmod ide-cd Using /lib/modules/2.4.27-1-386/kernel/fs/isofs/isofs.o insmod isofs Alt-F4: Nov 29 13:41:50 anna [2881]: DEBUG : resolver (wireless-tools-udeb): mark Nov 29 13:41:50 anna [2881]: WARNING **: bad md5sum Nov 29 13:42:36 main-menu [321]: (process: 2879): md5sum Nov 29 13:42:36 main-menu [321]: (process: 2879) /var/cache/anna/mdadm-udeb_1.7.0-1_i386.udeb Nov 29 13:42:36 main-menu [321]: (process: 2879): : Input/output error Nov 29 13:42:36 main-menu [321]: WARNING **: Configuring 'load-cdrom' failed with error code 7 Nov 29 13:42:36 main-menu [321]: WARNING **: Menu item 'load-cdrom' failed. Checked CD-ROM integrity and it failed MD5 checksum verification on
./install/2.6/initrd.gz
The checksum in the MD5SUM.TXT file on the CD was d0e0ecffd33d919023ded989eb860bce ./install/2.6/initrd.gz
I ran the MD5SUM.EXE on the component and found it to be the same as the checksum on the MD5SUM.TXT file on the CD:
d0e0ecffd33d919023ded989eb860bce *initrd.gz Possibly related to Bug#283378. I suspect there is a difference between this P3 machine that doesn't load sarge, and the P4 machine in the above bug that doesn't load woody but does load sarge (installation-report success to be filed).
