connect direct install

I have downloaded a zipped file which I gunziped. however, I cant get it to run.

the file type is odd for what Im used to seeing.

# file Hpux3600_base
Hpux3600_base: ASCII cpio archive


This is after I have gunzip'ed it. I cant get it to run. I am stumped...

Re: connect direct install

Todd,
where did you download it and what did the website say it was ?
Could it be a cpio file?

See http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=218896

Can you make any sense of head -1 or strings ?

Re: connect direct install

Thanks! it was a cpio file. It threw me b/c i had to gunzip it first and had no extension.

I was able to cpio and extract the data.
