Downloading it again now, =) And I see, Hoary Hedgehog is the name of the release... how strange :) Thomas Beckett wrote: <blockquote cite="mid4e3346e10509080404e8c8392@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">On 9/8/05, Eshan Mathur <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:vexir@vexiron.com"><vexir@vexiron.com></a> wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap=""> Hey guys I have a problem with installing Ubuntu. First off, my D-Link DWL-G520 (which is supported) won't get a connection, but, I learnt that I had the Rev. B of this card, so I need a certain patch thingy to make it work. All good, I'll apply that later. The main problem I'm having is that during the installaton I get an error saying bsdutils cannot be found, and it may be due to the fact that I'm not connected to the internet or I have a bad CD. When I resumed the installation, it fatally ended because it couldnt copy files into or from /target/. I have no idea what these are, I am new to linux and Ubuntu. (I tried Gentoo, but screwed it up really bad.) I reburnt the CD 3 times, and I get the exact same errors. Anyone know whats going on and how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated; thanks! </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> This is almost cetainly a problem with your iso. If it downloaded wrong then no matter how many times you burn it - it will still be wrong. To check the iso you need to compare the md5sum of your iso with the ones published on the ubuntu site. if you already have a linux distro installed then you can run: md5sum <your downloaded iso.iso> wait a minute and you will get a line that has a load of letters and numbers followed by the iso filename. the load of letters and numbers is the md5sum of your iso. Now goto the download page for the iso that you downloaded and there will be an MD5SUMS file there too, for example <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ubuntu.hands.com/releases/hoary/MD5SUMS">http://ubuntu.hands.com/releases/hoary/MD5SUMS</a> is the md5sums for Hoary. If you click on that link you will see that the Hoary Install CD for i386 for example is: f6b3f164c99761234858a4d2c12d0840 ubuntu-5.04-install-i386.iso if this is the iso that you downloaded and the sum does not match then you know that it was a corrupt download. To fix it just download the iso again, check the md5sum of the new download and burn it again if it is correct. If you only have Windows to work with at the moment then grab the md5 program from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/md5.zip">http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/md5.zip</a> unzip it to any folder, bring up a command prompt and go to that folder, the rest is the same. Hope this helps Tom </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
