Archive/kernel problems
Sorry, on the first post, I forgot a subject.. I apologise for the
duplication...
After downloading kernel-source-2.2.17_2.2.17pre6-1.deb (for the third
time) from both ftp.debian.au.org, www.au.debian.org and ftp.debian.org
and then executing "tar -Ixvf kernel-source-2.2.17.tar.bz2" in /usr/src I
received the following error:
.. list of files in archive ...
kernel-source-2.2.17/drivers/net/epic100.c
bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)
It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to *attempt* to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
tar: Archive kernel-source-2.2.17.tar.bz2 EOF not on block boundary
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
The error has occured on different files in the archive on each occasion.
If I'm the only one experiencing this error, what't wrong with my system?
If anyone else is getting the same, or similar errors how did they fix it,
and what's wrong?
I admit I'm fairly new to Debian and Linux in general, but I believe I have
everything else in working order on my machine.....
Thanks, in advance,
KD
