Why do I get lots of 0 byte files when extracting the Unix-format archives under WinNT/2000/XP and how can I extract them properly?

The Unix-format archives contain several hardlinks. Extracting them under WinNT/2000 doesn't work properly (as links are not supported by Windows) when using common decompressors, so you will get 0 byte files instead of the links. But there is a way to extract the files properly.

Download star. Exe, bzip2. Exe and the cygwin1.

Dll from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/win32/ Put them somewhere in your path and run star -x -bz -copylinks f=/cygdrive/driveletter/path_to_your_archive in the directory, to which you want to extract the database. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
