missing tar in root.tgz

["Aaron M. Johnson" <ajohnson@math.ukans.edu>]

Hello,

	We are getting closer.  The boot problem has been resolved.
Tried to "Install Operating System Kernel and Modules" but it barfs
and restarts dinstall at the color/mono screen.  Did not see any error
messages... 

So then we tried to unpack the base1_2.tgz and boot using localdisk
for root fs.

Where is tar ?  Cannot find it in root.tgz

Fine, so we unpacked tar from
lix.polytechnique.fr:/pub/Linux/debian/sparc/binary-sparc/base/tar*.deb
using another machine and put it in place but it was dynamically
linked (?) and so did not work.

Can somebody statically link tar and tell where I can get it?
Are we on the right track?

thanks,
aaron
