     When using extract I linked the /tmp dir to my etcdist dir where the 
     distribution resides.  I did extract etc01 and got this error:
     
     /tmp/install.etc01: Can't open /tmp/install.etc01
     extract: Cannot execute installation script of distribution, failed
     
     I didn't see this file on agate.berkeley.edu is it somewhere else or 
     is this a bogus error.
     
     Any help appreciated!
