When I looked at 'df's' output I saw that my disk had run full free -18619 106% (maybe the negative number is not a bug but a feature?), and I blamed the fact that I had all of bin01,etc01 and src01 in /tmp at that time. I will get to extracting etc01 soon and will see if extract will work now. -- Chris ----------------------------------------------------------------- kuku@acds.physik.rwth-aachen.de *** Error code 1 Stop.
