You will need a formatted 3 1/2 inch floppy diskette for the following procedure. Download the file xxx.tar.gz to a temporary directory.
Extract the file to the floppy disk as follows:
1. On a Linux system:
Type the following commands under a Linux command shell: mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
tar xvzf (full path to the archive) -C /mnt/floppy (Eg: /temp/xxxx.tar.gz) umount /mnt/floppy
2. On a Windows system:
Use a utility such as Winzip to extract the contents to a diskette.
NOTE: For Winzip, you will have to uncheck the "TAR file smart CR/LF conversion" option under:
Options->Configuration->Miscellaneous
for the extraction to work correctly.
On the target system, mount the floppy created above as follows:
mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
