I had a similar problem but mine kept failing at a different
package. All I did (after many hours of trying several dozen different
things) was change the RAM in the PC and all worked without any further
issue......might work for you?

Subject: Installation error (media failure?)


Hi Rune/ All,

Did u get the solution to this problem of installation?

I am also getting the same error while installing Red Hat Linux 8.0 on
my machine.

I am trying to install RedHat 8.0 from hard disk. I have placed all the
red hat binary iso images on /dev/hda4 partition (in a long directory
path /from_hyd_261002/ocean/RedHat8.0/Binaries).

I am booting my pc with linux 8.0 boot floppy which I created using
rawrite boot.img on win98

Installation goes fine upto 55% and then suddenly it gives following
"Error" window and never proceeds beyond it even though I press return
constantly.

The error message I see is:-

"The file /tmp/isomedia//RedHat/RPMS/openoffice-libs-1.0.1-8.i386.rpm
can not be opened. This is due to a missing file, a bad package, or bad
media. Press <return> to try again 
[OK]"

At this point of time, I found that out of (Total) 1463 packages to
install, 829 (Completed) were installed and 634 were Remaining to
install. The size of this package was 125268k.

I thought that this might be a stray error and tried to install 5 times,
but the installation got stuck for this package for three times, where
installation got stuck once for kernel package and once for
kjots-3.0.3-3.i386.rpm.

May anybody please help me resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Ganesh
