.buildstamp on the initrd.img inside the 5.4/os/i386/images/boot.iso (aka CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso) is NOT the same as the initrd.img from
5.4/os/images/pxeboot/initrd.img

good .buildstamp (same as the one in 5.4/images/stage2.img):
200910021224.i386

bad .timestamp:
200910011423.i386

md5sum of the good initrd.img:
1b6049435c34bd58cc665419a17b69a8 5.4/os/i386/images/pxeboot/initrd.img

bad one:
241d76e457e35f3f86976ab61ce56167 isolinux/initrd.img

-> it's the same used in CentOS-5.4-i386-LiveCD.iso (renamed as install.img)
241d76e457e35f3f86976ab61ce56167 install.img

I've tried two different combinations of mirror and netinstall iso and have gotten this error as well.

Hi! I've tried 3 mirrors three netinstall isos (all md5sum the same), with the same error.

Hi, I too am seeing this issue and have tried multiple 5.4 netinstall ISO images from multiple servers.

Ended up installing from 5.3 netinstall image.

I think, it makes no sense to point the minor version 5.4 netinstall image installer to the major version 5 path.

[tru@home 5.4]$ md5sum isos/i386/CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso os/i386/images/boot.iso
34c9ccca520e7c049768b672c05644a4 isos/i386/CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso
38b01ccb81bfc16c6544bc11a6211f82 os/i386/images/boot.iso

could you try the boot.iso instead of the netinstall.iso?

The two files on the 5.4 QA tree show identical md5sums:

34c9ccca520e7c049768b672c05644a4 boot.iso
34c9ccca520e7c049768b672c05644a4 CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso

I believe those isos work. If this is the case, CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso on the mirrors is correct and boot.iso is incorrect. ???

I confirm the same issue. How should we solve the issue?

I too tried 3 different iso's and six different mirrors even the

 mirror.centos.org mirror gives the same error.

The proper files have been pushed to the master centos.org servers.

The following md5 checksum should match:

26bf3477c37002528e92b2734ac46816 5.4/os/i386/images/stage2.img
34c9ccca520e7c049768b672c05644a4 5.4/isos/i386/CentOS-5.4-i386-netinstall.iso
34c9ccca520e7c049768b672c05644a4 5.4/os/i386/images/boot.iso
