the pb is that rpmlib doesn't tell so. Or at least i have to scan the
install.log to know that. I've already added this:
die _("Some important packages didn't get installed properly.
Either your cdrom drive or your cdrom is defective.
Check the cdrom on an installed computer using \"rpm -qpl Mandrake/RPMS/*.rpm\"
") if grep { m|read failed: Input/output error| }
cat_("$o->{prefix}/root/install.log");
could you give the install.log you got?
thanks, cu Pixel.
