Possible reasons: outdated CD (keys no longer valid) corrupt CD (keys unreadable) time issues bad mirror man-in-the-middle attack/repo poisoning (extremely unlikely) You can try another CD (possibly downloaded&burned from a different machine than you used last time). Or you can use the 'advanced' option of the installer, and simply skip the software installation part. This *should* give you a working install without anything but the base OS. Then you can update your sources.list and install manually. > output from ps -ef: > 31637 root 1672s udpkg --configure --force-configure pkgsel > 31638 root 1808 S /bin/sh /var/lib/dpkg/info/pkgsel.postinst configure > 31659 root 1808 S /bin/sh /bin/in-target sh -c debconf-apt-progress --f > 31686 root 1668 S log-output -t in-target chroot /target sh -c debconf- > 31687 root 10212 S /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/defconf/frontend /usr/bin > 31689 root 6416 S /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/bin/debconf-apt-progress --from > 31690 root 50824 S aptitude -o APT::Status-Fd=4 -o APT::Keep-Fds::=5 -o > 31694 root 1812 R ps -ef Looks normal. Clearly the issue is related to the key error you receive above. -- Liam
