Check out Red Hat's "Product Errata" in their support section of their
web site.  It gives a way around this problem for those of us who
experienced it.

Hrmmm,.. Didn't think too much about this untill I decided to install
RH5 on one of my
boxes <hehe one of the Cyrix Ones> from a dos partition. (btw. rehat 4.2
works on an identical box)

*Scanning /temp/rhimage/RedHat/RPMS for packages
*failed to rpmReadPackageHeader index~1.rpm  

Ok.. seems like I've read about this before <yup>
after going to the forementioned errata I pondered to myself, if I
upgrade the gcc rpms
what difference is it going to make I cannot get passed the boot&supp
disks then a package scan.
(btw. I did try subbing the gcc packs)

Any comments/workarounds?

Jess

Has anyone figured this out yet? I have somewhat the same problem and I have
attempted install from hard disk, FTP, and NFS. I have tried this on
multiple machines with the same results or unable to set PASV error. I have
used numerous FTP servers all supporting PASV transfers including redhat's
own site! I planned on aborting the install from redhat's ftp site if it
started correctly but according to redhat's install disks they don't support
PASV ftp either! Is redhat up to something? Are you purposely aggravated if
you don't purchase their CD?

PS. I saw nothing in the 5.0 errata about this, am I blind?

I am having the same problem.  I have tried to install from FTP and
hard drive and end up with:
	
	install exited abnormally -- recieved signal 11 etc...

I have remade the boot and supplimental disks 5 times now each with
a fresh copy of boot.img and supp.img.  If anyone can help me I would
greatly appriciate it.  

Thanks,

Jamie

This won't help you very much, but I had exactly the same problem while
installing RH 4.2 (I'm not a newbie:-))) It seems to have something to
do woth with corrupt file system or hard disk with bad sectors

I'd like a solution too :-)

I had the same problem, I think you didn't define any swap space
