			  * I need help *

I have encountered a problem unpacking Gemini 1.2. It comes as three 'self-
extracting LHarc archives as well as LHARC.TTP. Hah, thought I - no problem
I'll just use the self extracting archives.

			*Big-time Mistake*

I tried to run GMNI12_3.TOS, which created its own directory and put
CHAMELEON.PRG in it, it created another directory and another and ...  It
looks to me like one of those self-addressing directories, because it comes
back to the directory with Chameleon in it.

So when you unpack Gemini 1.2, use the LHARC.TTP supplied, _don't_ use the
self-extraction mis-feature.

Now, how do I get rid of my screwed up directory, it says that it contains
a write-protected file, but it's empty. Do I have to reformat the partition?

All help will be gratefully received!
