I don't understand why you would have a problem witha badly pressed CD when
doing a install over the net? I'm not using any CD?

I have tried to install three times now and keep getting the same error
when
Mandrake 8.0 is installing. I can't tell if its one specific program that
is
causing the problem because there is a splash screen over top of the
progress bar and the name of the program that is being installed.

When the error occurred I get a message box saying:
An error occurred
Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference.

After I get this error the only thing I can do is press the OK button and
the installer starts reloading the list of packages and I have to go
through
selected what I want to install again.

Does anyone know what might be happening or a way to fix this?

thanks,

Aaron

Try one of these:

* install from a different mirror;
* do a very minimal install and then add more packages with Software Manager 
afterwards.

That's OK. I'm now trying to burn a ISO image and see if that works.

Sorry, i thought you meant that you were installing it over a network
from a cd, not over the 'net'.

Next time your installing, if you press the details button, you can watch the 
progress bar and see if it's a particular app giving you the problems.  (I 
had a copy of redhat 7.0 that would freeze up on the zlib install, so I had 
to install without it and add it in later after boot with rpm.)
