I'm new to the whole linux thing so i dont know if this is where it belongs. After trying multiple times to burn a good bootablke cd(about 6 tries) i finaly got it to boot. Well i tried downloading some files through myDSL and i always get an error. the error is a checksum error. i tried once i got the error. i rebooted and i was able to download it. right now when i boot4ed again i got the rrror again. what could be causing it

Okay, let me ask a few questions-What kind of hardware are you booting on? How do you connect to the net? What does the error message tell you? Posted by soadnation on Oct. 17 2005,11:23

I only know how to in windowsIt connects automatics for me. if u mean what type of hardware i got a linksys wireless router(computer is pluged into it) and i got road runner The message says Download or check sum error Posted by motokitn on Oct. 18 2005,00:55
HHmmm...Seems to indicate your downloads are getting corrupted, with all the trouble you had getting the iso burned too. Have you had these problems in the past? Posted by LebenOjanen on Oct. 19 2005,06:18
I'm using the current RC and having the same problem. I'm running it from a USB pendrive inside of Windows and when I use the download feature the files are downloaded and stored in /tmp but afterwards it gives me a Checksum Error message. I'll try restarting it and edit this post accordingly. *EDIT* Nada, same error. Any ideas? Posted by loell on Oct. 19 2005,06:31
i have also expirience checksum error in mydsl lately, im using dsl 2.0rc1it seems like when you download a .dsl, it is downloaded as text/plain. so what i did is, i downloaded opera.dsl from other computer with win98 and install it in manually via emelfm. so that i can download .dsl as it is. |
