Further work. I copied the whole CD to a partition on the hard drive. I then re-downloaded the lib6_2.2.5_6powerpc.deb from Debian. I over rode the one on that came from the CD. I re-did the install installing from the hard disk. Same error. So what ever is causing this file to corrupt is a different file or it is something with my hardware.
Granted this is a Mac clone but I didn't think it would be a problem. Also it is upgraded to a G3 450 Mhz from a 210 Mhz 604e. Are there any know problems with processor upgrades on Macs and installing Linux?
