- INSTALLING usrbin2.tar
-
- If you have previously installed LINBIN1.ZIP, you should have
- no problems installing this package. The steps to follow are:
-
- o Use rawrite (available in LINUX1.ZIP) to transfer usrbin2.tar
- to a formatted, blank, floppy diskette.
-
- o Boot LINUX, remove the boot diskette and insert the floppy which
- you made that contains usrbin2.tar
-
- o Once inside Linux, do the following:
-
- cd /usr/bin
- tar xvf /dev/floppy0
-
- o Many files will be untarred from the floppy to the hard disk.
-
- o Files that end in .Z must me uncompressed with the uncompress
- command.
-
- o Files that end in tar must be untarred:
-
- tar xvf myfile.tar
-
- o Some files that are executables must have their mode changed so
- that they will execute:
-
- chmod +x myfile
-
- o If you have problems, make sure that you have previously
- uncompressed the tar command:
-
- uncompress tar.Z
