Hi folks !
Spending a lot of time (downloading, etc ;-) ) I finally got NetBSD 1.1 running
on my machine. Seems to work fine. As I am a "bloody beginner" (never worked on
a UNIX machine !), I have problems to install X11R6...
Basic information:
Amiga Dos HD (Quantum Lightning 730):
Unit Size Used Free Full Errs Status Name
DH0: 20M 18004 25002 42% 0 Read/Write WB_3.1
DH1: 20M 41443 1563 96% 0 Read/Write HOME
DH2: 200M 9219 402427 2% 0 Read/Write Work
DH6: 455M 104782 828080 11% 0 Read/Write Daten
NetBSD HD (Quantum LPS 105):
dh3: 12M --> root
dh4: 18M --> swap
dh5: 69M --> user
both drives connectet to a GForce040, SCSI
The X11R6 archives are at Daten:DownLoad/X11/
The problem is:
Starting NetBSD with: loadbsd -a netbsd
mount the ADos-partition dh6:
I can read the directory /mnt/ados/DownLoad/X11/
everything O.K., but now...
the command
"gzcat filename | (cd / ; tar --unlink -xvfp -)"
fails. The output is:
"tar: can't open p: No such file or directory."
Is there anybody out there to to tell me what I am doing wrong? I know there is
somebody. Please help me...
Thanx in advance & greetings from Vienna
Ernst
