I tried installing the 1.5ZC today, and ran into a strange problem: pax
wouldn't
unpack the kern-GENERIC.tgz from binary/sets, no matter what.

Closer inspection revealed, it's gzipped alright, but the next layer
(tar archive)
seems to be somehow foo-bar. File didn't recognize it as tar archive,
but "data".
I checked the md5 sums and downloaded it straight from ftp.netbsd.org,
but no luck.
Looking into it with hex editor, it looks like the tar headers are
somehow corrupt.
Taking a kernel from kernels-directory, and using that worked alright,
though.

Anyone have an idea?
