Problem with Fedora 7 Install

[chronicler]

I've been trying to install Fedora 7 and have run into a strange error. I don't have a DVD burner so I downloaded the boot.iso file and burned it to a CD, and then boot to the install.

I direct the installer to download Fedora from the directory: ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/x86_64/os/

The network connection works fine, but when I get to the actual install the installer claims it cannot find the file:

setarch-2.0-4.fc7.x86_64.rpm

It gives me the option to retry looking for it but does not find it. The only thing it then lets me do is reboot the computer. I have also tried the Georgia Tech GTlib mirror and encountered the exact same problem. On both fileservers, the file in question is clearly there in the x86_64/os/Fedora directory.

Anyone have any hints as to what I can do?

Good that it's reproducible, but it sounds unlikely you ran into a network glitch of some sort if both are missing.

Did you customize the packages to install any?

You could create your own private mirror and see what happens. Without a way to make a DVD image, you might get a copy another way, a friend or user group maybe.
