Downloaded the archive, tried to decompress on Falcon ( with bzip2-1.0.2-1): IT WORKS without problems!!
I tested some other .bz2 archives from Vincent's site: bzip2 and tar work correct with this archives, too.
As the builds and my own test-archive (created on PC) don't work: On which system (software) are the builds
created? And which system did Vincent use??

No difference: Same error when decompressing helmut- or alan-build.

@ Paul:

I used different download folders on different partitions (VFAT+ext2) and never
had any problems with any filetype i downloaded- so HD errors or memory errors
can't be the problem.

@ Mark:

"md5sum -b /helmut-13012010.tar.bz2" shows:
"7a7e04332994487603986e17a0fc3365  /h/helmut-13012010.tar.bz2"

But how do i find out if this match the server?
