    Hi Jim,

    It looks like MacBinary II decode is broken in 4.0b7. I downloaded the latest CarbonLib SDK disk image from the ADC site and couldn't mount it. I DL'd it again and it was still bad... then I noticed some other things I had DL'd were bad too. I DL'd a 3rd time, turning off MacBinary II decode and then used Expander to decode and the disk images were fine. So, I then went back to Fetch 3.0.3 and did the DL with MacBinary II decode turned on and the disk images were fine too. I think this worked fine in 4.0b6 (I can't try it because I tossed it when upgrading to b7). I'm running on OS 9.1, G4/500x2, 256MB.

    Yes, MacBinary downloading is broken in 4.0b7. This will be fixed for 4.0 final. I aplogize for the inconvenience.

    Fetch 4.0 final is due April 9.
