The installation instructions of Rocket is quite good and does indeed mention the need to use "cpio" on UNIX servers. See "Quick Installation" and "Step-by-step Instructions" (of NEWINSTALL.PDF)...
However, the instructions from Rocket could be improved - with a minor revision, as the Installation guide assumes you're using a CD-ROM or tape drive to get the installation software on your system. It is not clear that after you download the software archive file from the Internet, that you can upload it (as a binary file) to your UNIX host. Once there, "un-zip" (preferably as root) and then you must perform the "cpio" after that step. -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of doug chanco Sent: Tuesday, 2 October 2012 3:43 AM To: 'U2 Users List' Subject: Re: [U2] STARTUP file issue with UV11.1 PE version (Linux) No sir, I did not know that, why would they cpio it anyway?

Has anyone else seen this? I re downloaded the zip and still had this issue. It was easy enough to resolve but I thought I would mention it.
