They're on the live file system CD-ROM in the same place as you would expect to find them on the system (i.e. /bin). Alternatively you can extract them from the 'bin' distribution. Normally you'd do: # cd / # cat /var/dist/distdir/bin.[ac]* | tar xzvf - bin/cat bin/cp bin/chmod This is rather difficult if you don't have cat, of course. You'll be pleased to know that all three files are in bin.aa, so you can write # cd / # tar xzvf cat /var/dist/distdir/bin.aa bin/cat bin/cp bin/chmod Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
