This is why I wish I never added these options to the import command, it
brings up too many user questions related to basically GIGO scenarios.
Most likely what you have there is not what import /needs/, which is the
exact copy of what was originally on the DVD images.
Hence why I recommend most folks just try the DVD ISOs.
