I am about to install Debian 2.00 onto my PC with Windows 95 already on

I want to pre partition hard drive with Partition Magic 4.00 since
Powerquest Corp claims that v4.00 fully supports Linux's ext2.
Has anybody used Partition Magic 4.00 to create ext2 partitions and does
it work correctly?

I made the commandtar -x wabi2.2.tar and nothing happens.
I think because it is a DOS file type. It was on a DOS floppy.

I had quite similar problems. My installation procedure didn't find
dpkg-perl at all on the cd's. Finally I used dpkg -i to install that first
