When I do tar vxf 6.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso It mostly works as expected except for the following strange error message observed while extracting: x INSTALL.HTM x INSTALL.TXT x README.HTM x README.TXT x RELNOTES.HTM x stand x sys tar: Ignoring out-of-order file x RELNOTES.TXT x .cshrc x root/.cshrc There is only that one error and I wonder, A. What did I miss? B. Is there a way to work around this? As always, thanks. Martin McCormick WB5AGZ Stillwater, OK Systems Engineer OSU Information Technology Department Network Operations Group
