Error when extracting during instalation

Post by radm4 »

I'm instaling the Gentoox Home V6.1 all seems fine untill the instalation starts the section where I dont need to touch anything. The extraction gets up to near 100% then it tells me one of the files is corrupted.

Has this happened to anyone else or should I just download another gentoox edition?

I would try reburning the iso to a media that you know is fine with your perticular dvd drive (eg DVD-R) with the verify option set in your burning software. If this still fails it is worth checking the md5 checksum with that on the main site. (google md5 checksums if in doubt!)
