For some reason it was extracted to /tmp, where of coarse it was deleted after the next shutdown. New Problem: I ran the extract command on the etc01 distribution and after a whole lot of grinding of my disk, it reported that the installation had failed because it could not find the install.etc script file. There is no such file in the etc distribution. Now what? Thanks in advance, Ami Ganguli. aganguli@irus.rri.uwo.ca
