Short version:
Multiple ftp-transfers of the same file doesn't give the same sum.
cp file file1, then sum file != sum file


 ----------
Long version:

On the machine, where user-id 0 can't be translated to "root", I tried
to copy a new set of binaries over from a working 2.2.5

The kernel on the strange machine is 2.2.5, but the binaries was 2.2.2 I believe.

Anyway, strange errors are popping out "Invalid opcode", ld:defined in mysterious ways.

So I tar'ed /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin together on the working machine, and ftp'ed the tar to the strange.

When I untar'ed the files, tar stopped in the middle and tried to skip to the next header. Bad copy, I guessed, ftp again. Stopped at another place. Now mv dont work, vi also stops with a trap.
 --------

What the h... is going on? Could it have something to do with I'm having to patch scsiconf.c, because the drive doesn't report properly it is a SCSI-1?
