Hi guys,
About the errors: during boot up 4 times a 'cloop error in block number so and so is shown on screen. Two times a 'read error (with 13500 bytes lost)' is shown.

After boot up the system seems to be operating allright, except for the time shown on screen. It is about 16 hours off. The date is OK.

The size of the harddrive partitions (6 on drive 1 and 3 on drive 2) are all given as the same size (390 B), which is incorrect. In the properties all the partitions have a remark about a Ramdisk of 193.9 MB of which 191.9 is free. This does not make much sense to me. Maybe a quirk of Linux.

As for the MD5 checksum, I'm still wrestling with that one.

I tried booting with 'NODMA' and also from the other CDROM drive. Did not make any difference that I could tell.

Next thing I will do is making a fresh download and see what happens.
Thanks for your help so far.

Best. Taeke.
