My kernel vmlinux seems to compile at a weighty 2.6Mb - is this image too large to boot on the N2200?

It would seem that your tar.gz file is corrupt

I just downloaded it and testet it. On my Debian Woody it works without errors.
Maybe something got wrong when you downloaded it.
You can test if the file is corrupt ,
make   md5sum linux-2200-0.2.1.tar.gz
the result  must be

I just googled around and find anoteher possible reason for the error.
In one Forum the say:

It could well be a gnutar version problem.


Did you try it with another tar-version (like the one in DSL) ?

8363,

I also tried to download and decompress your archive.

Using Nautulis package manager and also by tar zxvf - it bombed out stating that the archive (in various places) had an implausibily old time-stamp dated in 1943! Yowzaz! :)

Any chance you could repackage and repost?

Cheers,

TT.

The problem must be with the newer versions of Tar that we are using, so I will try again only from DSL.

TubbyTommy ,caulktel
i just downloded the current DSL (1.0), burn it on CD and boot it.
Then i download the linux-2200-0.2.1.tar.gz file with DSL (1.0 comes with Firefox , great)
and make tar -xzf. It works without errors.
