Well, I just got kermit 3.86 off USENET, and tried to unpack it.  Unfortunately
I failed in my task.  I started with both files (APP386.1 and APP386.2) on
a floppy, did "EXEC APP386.1,R25", and waited.  After about a minute of 
activity it crashed, and I got the not very helpful message "Error #8" followed
by "Get help" (or words to that effect.)  Well, the manual didn't have anything
useful in it, so I've decided to post here.  Does anyone know what I'm doing
wrong?  And how to fix it?  Reply by post or by Email, its up to you.
