Probably it's all my fault. Thanks, Charlie. I downloaded them from the following mirror with wget wget ftp://mirror.fis.unb.br/pub/linux/Mandrake/iso/Mandrake92-cd1-inst.i586.iso The thing is I didn't download the .asc file and the third iso. What is the .asc file for ? I'm almost sure the whole file was downloaded accordingly. Maybe that's the problem. It is my first time trying to download iso's... Thank you very much. -- JM
