I can't extrat the src01 distribution. I put all the src01 files in the /tmp directory and then run extract. It runs for about 20 mins, checks the files, then says something about being almost ready and then quits. It complains about the missing file /tmp/install.src01 I have tried another src01 pack, (the first was from gatekeeper) but the results remain the same. ***** The other one is probably even more basic. I have a Epson Lq-850 on the serial line. Now I want to tell /dev/com2 to go into cs8,-parenb,-istrip mode. How can this trick be done with bsd0.1. I am not familiar with the BSD-way of installing printers. (as you see) Any help greatly appreciated TIA -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Folker Meyer * "God is real, Universitaet Bielefeld * unless declared integer."
