You are right about the age of the system - I just got the same error gzipping 339M file, but not a smaller 149M file. I tried your disk idea. I unmounted the volume I was using and did an fsck with no errors. Then I gzip'ped a new set of files on another drive, and got the same error. I recompiled gzip from source also. > Also you don't say if the files are local, if you are transmitting the > files make certain they are not being sent in ascii format, ftp for > instance. I am not transmitting the file via FTP or anything else right now. All is local for now. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
