NOW, when I try to install Courier (MTA) that way, I'm getting database errors. Similar errors occur when I try the above command as "user", btw. Here's a sample ... ------- Preparing... rpmdb: read: 0x4007c394, 4096: Input/output error rpmdb: unable to create/retrieve page 3810 rpmdb: PANIC: Input/output error error: db3 error(5) from dbcursor->c_get: Input/output error error: db3 error(-30987) from dbcursor->c_close: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: db3 error(-30987) from db3c_open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: db3 error(-30987) from db->get: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery ########################################### [100%] ...snipped... error: db3 error(-30987) from dbenv->close: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: db3 error(-30987) from db_env_create: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: db3 error(-30987) from dbenv->remove: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery rpmdb: read: 0x40732b74, 4096: Input/output error rpmdb: Overflow page 3810 has bogus prev_pgno value rpmdb: Overflow item incomplete on page 3810 error: db3 error(-30985) from db->verify: DB_VERIFY_BAD: Database verification failed [root@Faraday i386]# ------- I also tried to install "Nano" (a Pico-like editor, that works better than Pico), and I'm getting the SAME database errors!
