Yes, you're right! # ls -la /usr/include/sys/ total 40 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 Nov 13 09:28 . drwxr-xr-x 320 root root 40712 Jan 8 20:30 .. Why is this empty?!! Something to do with tar breakage? I tried this with different options, the last one being tar xvf (just in case the half broken tar sparse files option is not fixed yet) and still these files are missing ... O_O Why wouldn't these files have transferred over? What else might be missing? Very confused ... -- Regards, Mick
