It works!  The "cpin" worked fine.  I expanded it in a temporary
directory "/temp" then copied the files over to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*

I have no idea why the installer didn't like expanding that file,
but not the X-server works.

Now to figure what's wrong with my ethernet so that I can access X from
my centris, and not be restricted to that little tiny screen :^)

Thanks Colin (and everybody) for the help.
Roger

I'm not.  It works just fine for me, and NetBSD-side installs are a lot
faster than under the Installer.

Anyway, to do the install, use:

tar --unlink --xzvpf /path/to/tar/file

although I think that that --unlink might be unnecessary with our current
incarnation of tar.

How strange.

Well, I hope the above helps.

Later.
