I have to run the grep while "standing" in a non root-mounted locale I suppose?? Great. *sarcasm* So we've found it. It's there, we know it's there, but I don't know which file it is in! Ugh ugh ugh.

At startup, I figured out how to press F2 and go into an interactive, "expert" as it was called mode of bootup / kernel loading process. There have been ide-scsi errors and kernel panics in the past so I pressed 'n' to not load any scsi modules. However, oddly enough, my "dmesg" output is replete (full of) weird ide and scsi error messages. Could they be what tar/gzip is talking about? There is a random timer probably counting down to my next kernel panic from this Knoppix 3.2 Debian Linux CD-R I am booted up into!! I better scoot.
