I'm trying to install 2.1.0-950726-SNAP from floppies, but because I've got access to a un*x machine, I wrote the floppies with tar. I thought that I would be able to manually extract the distributions by hand and then proceed with the installation. The problem is that I can't get a shell to issue the magic tar command (and I know that tar is there because I can see the commands used by sysinstall on the second screen.) Any advice is welcome, Andras (lazy to rewrite 20+ floppies)
