I've downloaded the config.tar.gz set several times from different
sites and networks, but it is really corrupt. Appr. 3 files can be
extracted from this set during installation, but installation fails
when it tries to extract the file /usr/local/sbin/inst.
Should the configuration tool "rcm" also be in this config set?
I don't seem to have this tool anywhere (not in /usr/local/sbin
or anywhere else).
