hello, i just signed up for that basic linux training course you guys were talking about, got the confirmation email last night, so i started by installing linux on an old p133 box to practice on,,,problem is that upon rebooting the machine for the first time I always get this error:
lilo
uncompressing linux........
crc error
system halted

ive tried a few times but regardless of first boot off of floppy or hard disc, cant get pas this error message,,,
is it an improperly loaded module, or a hardware failure, i slaved the disc in question to a MS box and it stores files without any apparent corruption,,,
what to do?
any suggestions???

It's a hardware failure, IMO. Try a boot/rescue floppy if you can get ahold of one. But what you probably would want to do is replace the hard-drive.
