macguyver Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I downloaded the Tiger-x86.tar.bz2 file (1.3Gb) from a torrent and I extracted it using the latest WinRAR 3.50 The image file should be 6Gb, but it gives a CRC Error after 4gb. I downloaded the file again, and again i could extract only 4gb. My net connection is not that fast, it takes a whole day to download 1Gb, i already wasted a lot of time. I found a 956mb ISO file for Tiger-x86, but someone told me all ISOs are fake... Can anyone please tell me how i can get the REAL image or iso file! there are a lot of fake files floating around on torrents... Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

arsenalsam7 Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 snake, are you running fat32? if so, that's why you only get 4 of the 6 gigs...i had to convert to ntfs to do the DD...but now i am running the dev dvd with release 1 patch, it's a much better install than DD Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3055-real-fake-files/#findComment-19456 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do i need to have NTFS to extract this 6gb file? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3055-real-fake-files/#findComment-19459 Share on other sites More sharing options...
