I was seeking a way to extract cab files too and found two 1) you can get your self any bootable win disk and use it's tools (boot it with cd access and then exec win98/extract.exe), but then again if you don't have any 'fat' partitions, all you will be able to access is a floppy, for some it's enough 2)You can download the winrar 3.20 for linux: http://www.rarlab.com/rar/rarlinux-3.2.0.tar.gz -- with regards Lukasz Hejnak szift@tkk.pl
