Has anyone had problems with the ST-Minix upgrade patch (v.1.5.10) found in atari.archive? I ftp'd it and it doesn't unpack at all. Decompress in Minix 1.1 or in Sony workstation only gobbles up disk space up to several megabytes. -- ***************************************************************************** * Kalle Kivimaa * In the beginning the Universe was created. * * JMT 7A123 * This has made a lot of people very angry and * * 468 2041 * has widely been regarded as a bad move. *

I've gotten mail from several people who have applied it successfully. Did you ftp in binary mode? Did you cat all the pieces together before trying to uncompress it? Those are the only reasons I can think of for it to have failed to uncompress... -- -- -- Howard Chu @ University of Michigan one million data bits stored on a chip, one million bits per chip if one of those data bits happens to flip, one million data bits stored on the chip...
