hi folks, Just after having installed Debian 1.1.3 from buzz-fixed/1996_07_14 I was using tar to copy debian packages on the disk, more precisely:
tar -xvMf /dev/fd0 (they are multi-volume files). Doing this I get "segmentation fault". I've tried with different volume sets (I've done one for each section, base, admin, devel .... etc) and I get inconsistent results. Some stops at the very first disk and some after that. Moreover dropping the -M or -v or both option (that of course results in a incomplete backup) works for the volume sets that stops at the first disk. Anyboby experiencing the same? Any idea. Any help is very appreciated. ------------------------------------------- Guglielmo Rabbiolo ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Mathematics Department, Purdue University, W Lafayette IN -------------------------------------------
