Package: boot-floppies
Version: version

Having downloaded Debian 3.0 r1 from the web, and burned a CD I get the
following error every time I attempt to do a "simple" automatic (vanilla
- I suppose) install by just following all the prompts and accepting the
defaults:

File Corrupt:  /instmnt/main/g/groff-base/groff  version  2.17.2-15   or
something quite like that.

I wend to another mirror site blueyonder  and downloaded their suggested
FTP and used it to download
debian 3.0 r 0 , and burned a CD -- (two download, with 2 CDs in fact)
and get the similar message to above, but with a different file being
declared corrupt on both these new CDs:    libc6

I am attempting to install to a 10 gigabyte disk that has a previous
version of Linux on it
( Previous Linux always died when it attempted to load and run the GUI
interface during bootup -- something to do with the fact that the
built-in video "shares" (steals) 8 MB of memory from my 128 MB plus 256
MB = 382 MB of  SDRAM memory.  -- But that is another story.)
So far I have tried RedHat 5.2 and Suse 6.4 on this motherboard without
being able to run the full-fledged GUI Linux in any version.
I am hoping for better success from Debian, which my nephew the guru
just loves.

It appears from reading the error messages on the attached floppy file
that the initial partition hda is 2 sectors TOO SHORT and does not end
on the proper boundary.  I will try installing by choosing the
INITIALIZE AND PARTITION  option instead of using the existing
partitions, formed by one of these previous installs.  That Bug Reporter
is a nifty tool! :)

It has been quite frustrating not to have any option during install to
get the corrupted file from some ALTERNATE source such as a floppy, and
then continue with the install; nor to be able to   simply to SKIP the
offending file and continue. nor to have any precise information about
the manner in which the file is "corrupt".  I was able to copy the
entire CD onto the DOS bit bucket "nul"  file using the DOS 7 (Win98)
command
    xcopy  i:\*.* nul  /s
without producing any error messages. (This has always worked in the
past to find and name files with a corrupted sector on a floppy or on a
hard drive in my years of experience.)  Looking at the file with
XNVIEW.exe under Win98 produced a hex and ASCII dump that did not
contain any obvious flaws -- except perhaps that the final two bytes "36
00"  may not be the proper file termination under Unix -- and may be,
correct, for all I know so far.  (Is that correct, or is this file
truncated???)

Any comments and advice GLADLY received!

You are doing a  GREAT WORK in providing a stable operating system that
gives us poor peons an alternative to Windoze!

I'm closing all bug reports filed on the boot-floppies since this
codebase has reached its end of life. boot-floppies is only in Debian
oldstable now (and temporarily in unstable because of bug #224469).

The new installer for sarge and beyond is of course, the
debian-installer. It solves a great many issues present in the
boot-floppies.

If you believe that your boot-floppies bug is still present in
debian-installer somehow, then please reopen the bug report and reassign
it there, or perhaps better, file a new bug report.
