Perhaps the file you're using has been deliberately misnamed. Or, perhaps bsdtar is not as useful a program as it would seem at first glance. If you remove the *.bz2 extension, leaving the filename as just *.iso, can it then be burned as an ISO in your CD burning software? In any case I would check the file with WinRAR or 7zip (or even Total Commander) to confirm that it really is a bzipped iso, and not just an ISO that has been renamed to iso.bz2 Holly -- [email protected] mailing list
