Hi all, for quite some time I've been trying to set up a head node for one of our clusters, basically cloning the setup for another machine (which installs fine, from the same repositories and nfsroot). I keep getting random MD5Sum errors, and sometimes even base.tgz doesn't unpack cleanly. At the moment, I'm suspecting the on-board network chip (Gilgal), or bad memory. I have run a 'find / -type f | xargs cat' over the whole nfsroot, and found nothing :-( - apparently this rules out network problems. Any idea how to localise the problem?
And BTW, is there a simple way to check the file integrity of a Debian mirror repository?
