[parisc-linux] cannot install (shellutils)

[Jörg Benndorf]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 522 bytes --]

When installing debian on a hp-9000 712/80 the below warning shows up:

"file:/instmnt/pool/main/s/shellutils/shellutils_2.0.11-11_hppa.deb was corrupt" <continue>
"Couldn't download shellutils" <continue>
"The previous attempt to install the base system failed. Please select "Next" to retry installation of the base system."

I got the install cd by downloading the iso image using jigdo.
I have tried version 3.0r0, 3.0r1 and 3.0r1NON-US but none of them works - always the same error message.

Any hints ?

Umm as I install successfuly 3.0r0 (and iirc in the list somebody else reach
to intall 3.0r1), I do suspect that the pb should be somewhere in the way
you proceded to burn your cdrom.

First of all, check the md5sum checksum of the image you download (very usefull
for big files).

If it is ok tell us more about tools you used to burn this image (I use cdrtools
on *nix system)

hth,

I think jigdo already did.  IIRC jigdo verifies the final ISO image.

The ISO seems to boot - therefore I'll guess it's something else.
But don't know where to begin without having the box in front of me.
Open the box and make sure everything is clean and all cables properly
connected. Reseat RAM (after grounding yourself). Try again.

If the downloaded image shows correct md5sum, I would recommend checking=20
your
burned CDROM for equal md5sum:
dd if=3D/dev/cdrom bs=3D8192|md5sum

change "/dev/cdrom" to your correct cdrom device and don't interrupt,
this may take considerable time without showing any activity, depending
on the drive speed.

Sometimes, not all cdrom raw discs are recognized well in all
drives. Changing manufacturer/type may help.

A way to prove that the cdrom drive in question reads your burned cdrom
correctly, might be to attach the drive to a (linux) pc with scsi IF and
run the same command there. Older drives tend to accumulate dust in the
optical path, wich might cause reading problems as well, and sometimes
are not well designed for modern cdrom raw material. Maybe you can
attach a more recent scsi drive to your hp-9000.

Joachim used dd but it could also used a tools coming with cdrtools:
readcd dev=1,4,0 f=- | md5sum

(for dev replaced your own cd hw/path)

Absolutly right, for my own I used :
readcd dev=1,4,0 f=- | md5sum

(replacing dev= by the relevant hw/path of your own cdrom)
