Howdy all,
 
I downloaded sage-4.5.3-linux-64bit-ubuntu_10.04.1_lts-x86_64-Linux.tar.lzma
from Xmission, Utah
 
Byte file size == 359368232
 
and after a bit of time and many many module extractions during decompression, etc,. got the following bad news:
 
...
 
sage-4.5.3-...[snip].../local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/.../sparsetools/_csr.so
 
xz: (stdin): Read error: Input/output error
 
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
 
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
 
tar: Error is not recoverable...
 
Suggestions?  I really would like to get this downloadable on my Xubuntu 64 system...
-Bill.

Did you check the md5 digest?  649b24bc22f16a6550dff16da256bced

The command is md5sum on Ubuntu.

Well, Mr. Md5sum decided to go home early, declaring an error, when I invoked it on the downloaded file.  (thanks for the suggestion, ccanonc, anyway!)  
 
However, you got me to thinking that maybe this will require a bit more delicacy.  So, I tried downloading again, but this time using a download manager, and voilà -- the Md5sum checked[!]
 
So, I am a happy camper!

Sounds like your hard disk may have badblocks.
