As this is not the first time this has happened, does anybody with src-tree
access (Bernd, Klaus, Ignatios) care to put this line : 

> cksum *.?? | diff - CKSUM

into the install documents, explaining what to do when you get an EOF unpacking
things. AFAIK, only the Amiga-port uses the splitted files, so it should only
go into the Amiga part of the install. If other architectures use it as well,
then putting it into the MI-part makes more sense. Thanx.

Hmm, somehow I don't really believe that :-)
