I am trying to install the binary version of Grass4.1 on our SUN
SPARCstation 2 (with SunOS 4.1.1 Rev B). I got all the files in
the directory "grass/grass4.1/release/binary/sun4" from Grass
ftp site "moon.cecer.army.mil". According to README file, I can
use "cat [dist] | zcat | (cd [destination]; cpio -icdmv)"
to unpack all the cpio format files. I got certain error messages
when I tried to do so:cat bin-sun4.cpio.Z.0001 | zcat | (cd /n/grass4.1; cpio -icdmv)
Make this read as bin-sun4.cpio.Z.*

Because the input was in ...0002
cat bin-sun4.cpio.Z.0002 | zcat | (cd /n/grass4.1; cpio -icdmv)

Only file ...0001 containes the infermation needed by [g]zcat
