Sorry, for bothering again.

Dealer said: "Try RAM, try to install on a different PC"

Tried different RAM -> same problem.

Tried a differnet Hardware (Dell Inspiron 8200[1]), everything is fine
:(.

Are there any know issues running UT2003 on this hardware (sorry
for long lines):

In my setup hda/b is the first promise, hdc/d is the second
via and hde/f is the second promise (first via disabled by bios).

My fstab:

Tried /opt und /multimedia. All other removeable devices commented,
since there is a bug in the install script to the effect of trying
to mount every singel removable device.

Since my _first_ problem is the decompress error I supposed the
problems might be based on the via southbridge bug, but fankly
speaking, I am not so familiar with this bug (SB live installed,
too). 

I would greatly appreciate any hint in this matter (excluding this
via-SB stuff would be so). TIA


[1] One of my friends, sorry, took some time to get there. However,
    I installed&configured it, so the config should be quite close
    to mine.
