Okay, I got the bindist up and fiddled with it enought o feel fairly
comofrtable with it.  I then tried to install it the wya the FAQ and
install notes tell me to install the srcdist.

I issued the shutdown now command to go to single user.
then typed ./magic like it says
however...both set_tmp_dir and load_dos do not work.

What am I doing wrong??  I need to get the files off of dos floppies and
the extract.sh since 1.1 Release has a problem with extract and srcdist.
