Not sure about my home pc but I think it is about 1 gb, my works one is 1 gb, so it might be the problem. Tony. -Original Message- From: Ronald J.

If the term Extraction actually applies to a sort of decompression then I would think that would be the problem righ there. Isn't the file like around 250MB? Also, should there be a none on the FS for /tmp? How does this /tmp compare to the other computers that this worked with? Fixing this now might help u down the road ;) Not sure about the fs for /tmp, to be honest. I'm gonna look at /tmp on my other 2 comps today. BTW, I know you were saying something to someone else on the list about messages not going thru. I can't receive any thing from you on Yahoo... Fortunately I have other ways of reading the list... I think its an ISP thing - charter.net here has been having a few problems for about a week - they told us (automated message on their helpline) that they are aware of it and are working on it. Lyvim and I came to the conclusion that yahoo might have them blacklisted for now. Hopefully it will be corrrected soon.

RE: [newbie] Americas' Army extraction problem
Yeah I'm running the download version of 9.1. Neither Enemy Territory or America's Army gave me problems... Any ideas what the prob could be? Would a rebuild of MDK be feasible? BTW, have you also checked your disk space - especially in /tmp? -Original Message- From: Ronald J.

Hall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 25, 2003 1:49 PM To: Newbie List Subject: [newbie] Americas' Army extraction problem Anyone have this running? I d/l'ed the file (504 megs), set it to be executable, then ran it as root (I also tried my normal user account). It gives this error: [EMAIL PROTECTED] darklord]# sh armyops190-linux.bin Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing America's Army: Operations for GNU/Linux 1.9.0...Extraction failed. Signal caught, cleaning up I also tried running it with ./armyops190-linux.bin Same result. I copied it to the other 2 comps and tried it there. It would not work on my 12 yr olds, but it did try on my 10 yr olds (wouldn't install though - it takes 1307 megs of space and he's got a smallish HD split between Linux and Windows). The question is, why wouldn't it install on: Mandrake v9.1 download edition Mandrake v9.0 full boxed set but would install on: Mandrake v9.0 download edition: ???
