Hi, all!

When I install FreeBSD on Seagate ST51080N (sd1) from IBM DPES-31080
(sd0), I get many error messages like:

     DEBUG: Generating /etc/fstab file
-->  mountmsdosfs(): Warning: root directory is not a multiple of the
clustersize in length

     DEBUG: Mounted DOS device (/dev/sd0s1) on /dos
     DEBUG: Request for bin/bin.tgz from DOS
     DEBUG: Request for bin/bin.inf from DOS
     DEBUG: Request for bin/bin.aa from DOS
     .
     bin
     bin/cat
     bin/chmod
     bin/cp
-->  /stand/cpio: invalid header: checksum error

-->  gunzip: stin: invalid compressed data -- format violated
     DEBUG: Switching back to VTY1

     .............................


The same errors are for another files from source : bin.ai, doc.ab,
manpages.aa...manpages..., proflibs.*
                                                    dict.*, info.ab,
src/* ....
The source files are good (when install to another computer - all is
O'k)

My computer:

 Pentium-100
 Triton
 PCI/IDE
 Pipelined cash
 RAM 16 Mb
 The SCSI host is NCR 53810 (PCI)
 Videocard is S3 Trio64
 Internal modem USR Curier V.34

Help me anybody!!!!! 

Sergey.
