Re: [kicad-users] Installer is corrupted?
I get this surprising often with downloaded installers. Have you tried downloading the installer again (making sure you're not just grabbing the same file out of the local browser cache)?

I removed the corrupted install file and uploaded a new one (non corrupted). -- Jean-Pierre CHARRAS Maître de conférences Directeur d'études 2ieme année.

In the schematics I include the module and it shows as just as a 3 mm circle in the edge layer. The advantage of this is that you don't get a plated hole in the pcb. To my knowledge (correct me if I'm wrong) pcbnew can't handle unplated holes, so this is a workaround for this missing feature also. The responsibility to make the hole now lies in the hands of the pcb manufacturer. Since the 3 mm hole is not included in the drill file, the manufacturer has to included it in the last production phase together with the rest of the edges, but this has never been a problem for me. // Magnus
