I've had no problems whatsoever. I'm just installed woody today
and yesterday from various netinst and mini-cd's.
I can really recommend the mini-cd from
http://www.phy.olemiss.edu/debian-cd/
I dl-d it yesterday (when the site was really slow due to being
mentioned in debian-weekly-news. I tested installing it in VMWare (since
that's so easy and risk-free). WOrked like a charm.
Today I saw that a new version was out... dl-in it all again was a bit
too much, but a simple rsync what enough to just get the differences,
and a few MB's later (and not 200... maybe 10-15, i dunno) I had a new
image.
Tested it on vmware again, worked like a charm again, installation in
about 15-20 minutes (including everything, ext3 and reiserfs,
mailserver, ssh, updates)
I've now burned that cd-image to a 3inch cd... very handy to have
around.
I really think woody is very near, and could be released any day now,
the new boot-floppies work perfectly.
I think you should check md5sums of files you download, or maybe use a
better downloading system, like rsync.
