To Whom it may concern..

I am trying to install NetBSD on my Macintosh.  As of yet I have been
unsuccessful. I have used  Disk manager Mac to setup two A/UX partitions one
for swap one for the / directory.  I had then run the mkfs application
on it and that completed successfully.  I then tried to run the Install app
and I got the following errors:

tar header read operation cancelled

I had downloaded all but the comp10 binary files and all the transfers went
ok.  I tried to run MacGzip on them and when I did none of them decompressed
at all.  Do I have to use the UN*X version of gzip to decompress them and
then attempt the install?

Lost and confused in BSD land...

Also are there plans to port X11R4/5/6 to the MacBSD anytime soon?  If I have
not supplied enough information I can be reached here at

tsl@mv.mv.com

p.s.  I downloaded the files from gatekeeper.dec.com 

Thanks for the help :)
