Hi all, I'm installing Debian 1.1 on a P90 with a NCR53c810 SCSI controller, so I grabbed the special kernel 'boot1440_2.0.5-1.bin' which supports this cotroller. The installation process proceeds fine until the "Install the Operating System Kernel" step. When I insert the boot floppy after a while I get the message:
Error in archive format. I'm sure the floppy is good (I've tryed 2 different floppies formatted with fdformat) and the file boot1440_2.0.5-1.bin has been downloaded from ftp.debian.org. So my guess is that the original file is somehow corrupted. I've tryed to insert the "standard" boot disk and it has been read correctly, but there is an incompatibility between the version of the kernel of the 2 boot disks so I can't load the module for the ethernet card to continue the installation via NFS. Anyone has experienced similar problems? Thanks in advance for any answer. Regards, Luca.
