I want to bring the October Gnome upgrade home in pieces, and have
determined which files I need to transport via floppy from my work
computer (which has the ftp capability) to my Linux box at home (which,
as I've said before, has no modem even).  #/Problem/#: how to split some
of the rpm's that would span 5-6 floppies.  Can I use a DOS splitter at
work, reunite them on the win95 partition at home, and then copy them
from there to the appropriate directories? (Actually, this seems to be
my only choice until I get my *own* machine at work, which I will
promptly convert to predom. Linux, and then maybe I'll be able to get a
file-splitter for Linux, and only have to deal with Linux-formatted
floppies?)  IS there a reccommended file-splitter for Linux (uh oh, here
it goes; y'all are gonna' tell me RTFM, that Linux comes with such an
animal.)
