Bordeaux fails install

greetings everyone,

I've just downloaded a copy of Bordeaux, burnt the 5 disks and attempted to
upgrade my FC4 MacMini to it, reaching the disappointing message:

> The package gnome-mime-data-2.4.2-1.2.1.ppc.rpm cannot be opened.  This is due
> to a missing file or perhaps a corrupt package.  If you are installing from

> Press Retry to try again.

I've checked the sha1sums and did the media check before install.  I tried
the install a couple of times, getting these errors on different files e.g.
bluetooth-libs-0.7.0-2.ppc.rpm, crypt* and others.

I then tried a network install, in case the drive had problems.  I attempted
an FTP-based install but with similar results.

what could be wrong? what can I do?

1,000 TIA - e
