I downloaded both lynx-2.2.2.tgz and lynx-2.8rel.2.tgz from ftp.freebsd.org/pub/freebsd/2.2.6-release/packages/all and I did download in binary. When I run pkg_add the hard drive spins for a few minutes and then I get the prompt. A reinstall tells me it's already installed but the files don't exist. Works fine after gunzip and tar x though. ?? Thanks > > On Thu, 16 Apr 1998, Kevin Liquori wrote: > > > So I got lynx installed! I used gunzip on the tgz and then 'tar xf' to > > extract it.
