The best thing would probably be to run !Gzip, and then drag the 
inst-12.fs.gz file onto the Gzip icon on the iconbar. Make sure that you 
have the options set to "unzip" or "reverse" as opposed to "zip".
However, if this is giving you problems you're going to have a great time 
actually installing and maintaining an entire UNIX OS. I haven't even 
tried installing it until I've got an entire weekend spare.
