I just installed 1.3 on my Alphastation 255, and I'm getting problems with
tar's 'z' option. Whenever I extract files, I get the following error:
gzip: stdout: Broken pipe
tar: child returned status 1
...but the extract seems (at least the few times I've let it complete) to
be OK. Have I done something wrong in the setup? It's fairly generic, and
I didn't have this problem under 1.3_ALPHA. This is a clean install of
1.3. (that is, I completely wiped the drive and installed using a boot
floppy)
ideas?
