I was supposed to intall SUSE 10.0 on my PC over the weekend. I finally downloaded the ISO of disc number five last Sunday. In my haste, I forgot to check the Md5sums of the discs four and five. When I started the install, I was impressed at how graphic the installer was. Linux has come a long way from the old commandline days. As always, whenever presented with the option, I chose to check the media. Not all Linux installers come with this. Most RPM-based distros do, as far as I've noticed.

Anyway, disc two came out wrong. I was hoping that the scratch on the surface was only superficial. I was wrong. Turns out that 'minor' scratch made disc two officially unusable. Disc four also turned up a wrong Md5sum . That made me think about checking the Md5sums for all the images. Turned out number 4's ISO was wrong. Now, I'm downloading the thing again from scratch.

To make matters worse, I ran our of CD-Rs. I'm too lazy to go to my suking tindahan, too cheap to buy from this store nearby and too sleepy to make the right decisions. I pretty much screwed things up the past few days. And then to top it all off (the idiocy, I mean), I gave in and smoked a cigarette this morning. Arghhhh! What must I do to be rid of this curse ?!?!

**sigh** Life goes on...
