Unfortunately, I did not allot enough disk space for extracting the bindist. I left only 62mb, instead of the 80mb recommended. Is it possible to extract the bindist in its entirety on only 62 mb? If not, how is it possible to copy files from unix to disk? I kept the bindist on the /usr/distrib, but I'm not sure how to copy to floppy. I may have to redo from scratch, and I would like to avoid having to download 15 mb of stuff all over again! Please advise. Thanking you in advance. --
