Not having a lot of luck here, probably because I don't' understand Unix
I would like to download some maps
an example is
wisconsin.osm.bz2
found here
http://downloads.cloudmade.com/north_america/united_states/wisconsin#downloads_breadcrumbs
i used my regular gui to download it to my home directory
then used x11 to move it to the /usr/local/share/xastir/maps directory
tried to unzip it, but got an error message, which i guess makes sense
as it's not a .zip file
1) am i even remotely close to doing this correctly?
2) this seemed like the map i would most likely want - does anyone
have any idea if it would be a good map to use for navigating around
wisconsin or would the wisconsinshapefiels.zip be a better choice. I
will be perusing the site to try and find info about the different
maps. there is quite a difference in file size.
tnx
