Hi, I am trying to unzip a file that I unmounted onto a unix machine from a cd I had burned in a Windows machine. The file I am trying to unzip is a .tar file... it was originally a .tar.gz file because it was zipped using gzip. I have tried:
% gzip -d hpux.tar (where hpux.tar is the file that was acquired from the cd).
Do I need to rename this to a .tar.gz file in order to use gzip? I tried that but it didn't work, but I could be doing this incorrectly. Any suggestions?
Also, this zipped files has folders containing other files. When it is finally unzipped, will it set up new folders within the directory where I am unzipping it?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks:confused:
