Any suggestions welcome:
Filepro Plus comes on 5 diskettes, I presume tar'd on a SCO box.
When I try to "tar xvf /dev/fd0H1440" it extracts the files just fine-except
for the ones that are partly on one diskette and partly on the next (ie
spanning the two disks.)
If I "tar xvfM /dev/fd0H1440" specifying multiple volumes there is no
difference. Argh! Please help. This project has turned into quite a
fiasco. I am hoping that one of the guru's out there can help.
Sincerely,
Robert Jones
