The zoo files that are created have invalid headers and the zips result in the message "No files found." Is there a bug (or a "feature") in 4.01 that would cause this behavior? Has anyone else experienced similar difficulties? I have no problem booting with 3.3 and (after copying the files to a drive with a < 32meg partition so that 3.3 will find it) uudecoding them that way, but this is a hassle. If this is a bug, I hope it will be fixed in 5.0.
