I'm using the  patched wd dist.fs kernel, so this may be part of the
problem...

I successfully installed the bin01 set, and then tried to install the 
etc01 set.  It ran for 10-20 minutes, and then a stream of errors 
something like (from memory):

extract:  etc01.xx : open:  too many open files

and I know that xx went at least as far back as 71.  Anyone know 
what the problem is here?

I did successfully get src01 to install.

Thanks for any help,
JHH
