gzip problems...Newbie! - solved?
Just in case anyone wanted to know.....
For some reason, of which I'm not sure, the problem was with the
leap-1_2.gz file. It would not created the directories. After I manually
made the directories gzip worked fine. I was logged in a root. So why
the it did not created the directories escapes me....
