Step 4: The Freeway Software tar file (PF-100-0136.tar) is located in the directory
/parts/PF-100/ on the CDROM. You may either copy this file to your local directory
(
/usr/local/) or leave it on the CDROM and extract the files from there. Below is an exam-
ple of a command to copy the tar file to your local directory:
cp /dev/cdrom/parts/PF-100/PF-100-0136.tar .
Step 5: Use the tar x command to retrieve the Freeway software files from the tar file.
You might want to include the
v option to display the file names as they are extracted.
Some systems require that you use the
f option to identify the peripheral device being
used. Below are two examples of the
tar command. The first assumes that the tar file is
in your local directory. The second assumes that the tar file is still on the CDROM. Note
that the device name on your system might be different:
tar xvf PF-100-0136.tar
tar xvf /dev/cdrom/parts/PF-100/PF-100-0136.tar
The tar command creates a directory called freeway in the /usr/local directory and copies
the software into it from the distribution media.
Step 6: Unmount the CDROM. Below is an example of the u
mount command (the
device name on your system might be different):
umount /dev/cdrom
