However, your write-up is pretty cruel to your old customers who has floppy-less cubes. It doesn't mention at all how one can combine "chunked" install packages into one, so you can transport this combined file to a floppy-less cube and install it there. In any case, I did this, and this is how: Copy contents of all 5 floppies to separate directories. You have 2 disks for 2.1 standard edition, and 3 floppies for Extended edition files. For standard edition, all you need to do is to copy Update_2.1.tar.Z.2 file of the 2-nd floppy into the *.pkg directory from the 1-st disk, and then in the 1-st *.pkg directory do: cat Update_2.1.tar.Z.1 Update_2.1.tar.Z.2 > Update_2.1.tar.Z This simply concatenates the split tar files into a single file. All other files such as *.bom, etc are simply duplicated on the two floppies. *.tar.Z.1 and *.tar.Z.2 files can then be deleted. You can also delete the 2-nd package now. Now you can click on "DoubleClick ME" file to proceed with the installation. Do the same thing for Extended Update package. Here you have to combine 3 pieces of tar.Z.? into one: cat UpdateExtensions_2.1.tar.Z.1 ...Z.2 ...Z.3 > UpdateEntension_2.1.tar.Z Now, here's the list of new files contained in 2.1 packages, taken from Installer log view. ----- Standard 2.1 update package ---- Installing Update_2.1 into / ... installing file /sdmach installing hard link /odmach installing file /usr/shlib/libsys_s.B.shlib
