Hi,

I have installed all file there:
http://mirror.thecust.net/harmattan-.../free/b/bzip2/

I run in terminal:

Tar xjvf alpha5.tar.bz2 -C /home/nitdroid/

I have an error

Tar: short read
Tar: short read

How to resolve it?

Thanks

Well, I can't tell you exactly what the problem is, but since "short read" means that tar couldn't find the end of the file this usually means the archive is corrupted.

You could try to get some diagnostic messages directly from bzip2, to see if the file has been compressed correctly. E.g..:

Code:
bunzip2 -t alpha5.tar.bz2
or

Code:
bzip2 -dt alpha5.tar.bz2
