Tried to install Anaconda3-2023.09-0-Linux-x86_64.sh on Linux version 4.19.286-203.ELK.el7.x86_64 (mockbuild@fc5d9f45ee7f4235b8d172dc87097d0c) (gcc version 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-44) (GCC)) #1 SMP Wed Jun 14 04:33:55 CDT 2023 on an Intel computer that resides in a rack a few thousand miles away from me.
The shell’s version is:
$ bash --version

That installation failed:
$ rm -rf ./anaconda3

I have write access to the target directory, and I am not root. Because mistakes happen, I moved on to try my luck with an earlier version of Anaconda’s shell archives; in fact, I tried three more. The results were curiously similar:
$ rm -rf ./anaconda3
$ bash Anaconda3-2023.07-2-Linux-x86_64.sh -b

Here’s the next one:

The last one follows below:

Those four failures are interesting. While the four expected checksums are different, the four got checksums are identical.
Has something gone awry with the build process?
I omitted full file checksums from my original post, and they are identical to the checksums on the archive page

Looking for a successful installation of an older shell archive, I tried to install four more. First, here are their checksums, and they are the same as those that appear in the archive:

Same OS. Same bash version. The four, new shell archives’ failures are different from those in my first post, but they share the same kind of failure: From different source lines from each shell archive, they all look for file preconda.tar.bz2, and none of them can find it.

If you should have pearls of wisdom, please toss toss them my way.
