I figured it out.  The problem lies with downloading from Windoz or not
downloading completely.  I just installed the rpm's directly from ftp site
like:

rpm -ivh ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental.....rmpname.rpm

Depending on your server connection, it could be MUCH faster than trying to
download via ftp and then upload to the server via ftp.  It was extremely
fast on my connection.
