I managed to properly install the "bin" distribution after downloading it from an ftp site to a DOS partition. This is the only distribution I have (currently) installed. I wish to rebuild my kernel, but need to install the "src" distribution, which I have also downloaded to a DOS partition. How do I install the "src" and other distributions that I download from an ftp site, using a DOS partition? Thanks! Matt
