Hello
I'm having problems unpacking the kernel-source-2.6.8 package. Aptitude
unpacks the deb package and places it in /usr/src but attempting:
tar xjvf kernel-source-2.6.8.tar.bz2
returned:
-------------
bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.
Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)
It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
tar: Read 2936 bytes from kernel-source-2.6.8.tar.bz2
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
-------------
further testing showed that it is the bzip2 file that can't be unpacked.
I found some posts relating to a similar problem (although different kernel
package) here:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2003/07/msg04191.html
The problem didn't seem to get resolved but this makes me think the problem
isn't the deb package...
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to resolve this? I've seen posts relating
to kernels compiled from these sources so someone must be able to unpack it!
cheers Simon
