Re: linux on max problem

[Tony Pitman]

Sarge needs more memory to run, I think. It is crashing during the RAM disk 
startup. It is saying it is trying to read past the end of the block device.

So I am back to trying to get woody to work.
I get to the point where it unpacks the basedebs.tar file. I end up with a 
directory on my drive called /var and all the files from the basedebs.tar 
are in it.

But then it tries to find Packages and says it can't find it.
Is there a way to manually install everything in the /var directory that 
came form basedebs.tar? There are a bunch of .deb files. Is there a deb 
application or something to extract the debs?

I can't find one anywhere on my ram or hard disk. Please send it if you can 
as a gz file.
