| <CLIP3r> | PLease can anybody help me how can I unpack this? mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686.tar.gz |
|
<stuu> | CLIP3r: tar only works on versions of mysql earlier than 2.01.15 i think theres another command though, i'm not sure |
|
<Apollo-> | stuu: So, tar doesn't work on any tar files that have mysql in the filename? |
|
<stuu> | Apollo-: as long as the version number isn't higher than what i speacified it should be fine |
|
<Apollo-> | stuu: I see |
|
<Apollo-> | stuu: DO you have clue why tar wouldn't untar a file called mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686.tar.gz? what if I just named the file this and it was really something else? |
|
<stuu> | Apollo-: it examines the binary information stored in the files boot sector |
|
<Apollo-> | stuu: the tar file has a boot sector? |
|
<Apollo-> | stuu: So, I can boot to it? |
|
<stuu> | Apollo-: oh yeah, well no tar uses it to boot |
|
<Apollo-> | stuu: Wow...you're full of knowledge, I had not clue tar had to go through a boot process to be able to work |
|
<stuu> | Apollo-: oh yeah, thats just the start |
