not likely, and you would probably get i/o errors at other times on other files. > One interesting thing I've noticed after comparing > your ls -l output with mine is that all other 4 image > files in this directory are dated way back to 2000 > timeframe, whereas credits.gif has a time stamp of > yestarday (day I tried the installation last time).

I wonder if the cd is bad and the msg is deceiving. That would explain why it fails at the same file during each install. Maybe it isn't the write, but the associated read of the cd and OUI is being creative in the msg. Sounds like a long shot. Try to copy the cd files in some other fashion like dd. Maybe something will float to the surface. > --- Ray Stell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, > Nov 12, 2002 at 10:53:37AM -0800, Boris Dali > > wrote: > > > > > > Hope not everybody is off to OOW :( > > > > > > Did anybody get the above combo working?
