I have downloaded most of the .iso images for Yellow Dog Linux versions 5x and 6x today and found that when I wrote the CD/DVDs the following .iso images all had truncated file names which has caused installations to fail:
yellowdog-5.0.1-phoenix-APPLE-20070504-disc1.iso yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc1.iso yellowdog-6.0-DVD_20080207.iso yellowdog-6.1-ppc-DVD_20081119.iso The following .iso images appear to be fine with long file names in tact: yellowdog-5.0.1-phoenix-APPLE-20070504-disc2 (- I haven't checked disks 3 to 6 yet although I wouldn't be surprised if they were OK as the issue appears to concern all bootable media) yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc2.iso yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc3.iso yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc4.iso yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc5.iso yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc6.iso When I mount the downloaded images and compare them to the written CD/DVDs the respective contents match. All of the .iso images were downloaded and burnt the same way - namely downloaded the .iso files using Safari (under MacOSX 10.5.6) from the US Oregon State University HTTP mirror and then burnt by dragging the images into DiskUtility, inserting the media and burning and verifying. Could someone let me know where I can get hold of .iso images for: yellowdog-5.0.1-phoenix-APPLE-20070504-disc1.iso yellowdog-5.0.2-20070627-disc1.iso yellowdog-6.0-DVD_20080207.iso yellowdog-6.1-ppc-DVD_20081119.iso where the file names haven't been truncated? Otherwise I would be grateful if someone could please explain where I am going wrong with respect to burning the bootable .iso images. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ yellowdog-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fixstars.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-general HINT: to Google archives, try '<keywords> site:terrasoftsolutions.com'
