I've got as far as using the install utility to install the packages, but I get the following message whenever I try: Choose file to unpack bad checksum in tar header 2335 0 Probably not a valid tar file. Try using the mini-shell and cpin or cpout. Finished extracting etc11. I've tried getting the files from a couple of sites, but still the same message. I've unzipped them myself using MacGzip, and tried installing from as far as they'll unzip, and as a .gz file, but still the same problem. Is there anything I should/shouldn't be doing along the way? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Cheers, Luke.
