Well,

 

I installed Darwin 8.0.1 without any problems.

I have everything to try it out:

 

application.tar mactel.tar, etc.zip, application.tar

 

 

But there´s something wrong with tar.

Well I want to untar everything. So first Darwin 8.0.1to8.1.0 patch

 

tar xpvfz Darwinpatch

 

First it unpacks some files but then errors occure:

 

tar: Skipping on next header

tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers

 

gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated

tar: Child returned status 1

tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

 

 

 

Well, I thought the download was faulty, downloaded it, but again these messages.

The problem is that I can unpack the package within windows with no problems at all. So I unpacked it within windows, made a zip out of it and wanted to unzip it within darwin.

A zip error accoured saying that the zip file wan not properly packed.

 

Well, I have never had problems with tar.gz

Are there any problems with Darwin and tar, zip, ... ?

Has anyone the same problems ?

Btw, is it possible to unrar RAR files within Darwin ?
