Hmmm, Well, if you have a separate machine (or even a pad), you can try to download another image. If it differs on that system from the ones you have on your current machine, then probably you had a bad download. Have you tried another source for the same image? Usually, if you have problems with downloaded files from one source, it is not as likely that the same error will crop up elsewhere (unless they are sending the same image to all sources). Also, you might try 1 version back and then edit the appropriate files in etc to do a Distribution upgrade in place. I have had to do that with UBUNTU after they went to their new installer. Believe me, after several hours of pulling my hair out, I sent a not so polite email to the maintainers of Ubuntu and downloaded SLINT instead. Much nicer experience IMHO. -Eric > On Sep 3, 2021, at 11:57 AM, Linux for blind general discussion <blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > status isn't part of that url, it's got a space in front of it and that > should have ended the url. > I ran sha512sum --tag on the iso and sent that to fail.txt. > Then I deleted the iso and downloaded it again and ran > sha512sum --tag iso >test.txt > Then I ran diff -s fail.txt test.txt and was told the two files were > identical. > So one of two things happened and I can't prove either. > Either I got a good download both times or a bad download both times. > Had those files been different, I might have tried installing with the > second iso. > > > On Fri, 3 Sep 2021, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: > >> Might be something going on in that particular version of Firefox. I am on OS X here as my primary and the Safari web browser doesn?t report any issues so far. Also, the /status at the end of the link provided in the subject above leads to a 404 error. Btw, Firefox isn?t very blind user friendly on anything other than windows or Linux.
