-The amiga binary distribution sets are distributed in the same form as
-the source distribution sets; catted together, the members of a set
-form a gzipped tar file. Each amiga binary distribution set also has
-its own "CKSUMS" & "MD5" file, just as the source distribution sets do.
-
-The instructions given for extracting the source sets work equally
-well for the binary sets, but it is worth noting that if you use that
-method, the files are extracted "below" the current directory. That
-is, if you want to extract the binaries "into" your system, i.e.
-replace the system binaries with them, you have to run the "tar xvfp"
-from /.
