Kevin, The runnix image fine is "gz" compressed, so do something like: $ gzcat runnix-serial.img.gz | dd of=/dev/sdd bs=16k or if you don't have gzcat... $ gunzip -c runnix-serial.img.gz | dd of=/dev/sdd bs=16k Lonnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
