Re: File corruption?

Thanks.  Saw the response from Thomas this morning and I’m doing a new installation now.  Hope that’s the problem because I was really impressed with the performance improvements.

When I went into the pkgsrc/wip directory and did a “git pull -r” it complained about file corruption.  I tired the same command in the pkgsrc/wip directory on my 9.99.17 system and got the same error.  I rebooted into the 9.99.17 system and the update ran fine.  Under the 9.99.38 system I tried just downloading a new checkout of the wip directory and it failed with file corruption errors similar to when I tried to do an update.
